Hardcover. Condition: As New. Dust Jacket Condition: As New. 1st Edition. 36 by 26cm., 256pp., fully illustrated in colour. Islamic art of the 19th century has received very little attention, and this is the first work devoted entirely to the subject. Through a series of essays and the entries on 188 objects in various media, the catalogue reflects the issues confronting Islamic artists and their patrons in the 19th century, namely the desire to maintain traditional forms of expression with their requisite skills, while acknowledging a need to develop new modes of expression suitable for the modern world. The first section of the book examines objects related to the Muslim faith and its expansion through Africa and South-east Asia. The second discusses the effect of royal patronage on the arts of the Ottoman empire, Iran and the Muslim courts of India. Domestic items are the subject of the third section. The concluding chapters examine Islam's interaction with the West through objects made both in Europe and in the Islamic lands, including the revival of Mamluk and Safavid styles.

Pub Year 1997, See images for condition. About the book >.>.> Dr Nasser D. Khalili has curated a significant collection of Islamic art since 1970, part of several collections under the Khalili Family Trust, which also encompasses Japanese art from the Meiji period, Indian and Swedish textiles, and Spanish damascene metalwork. The goal is to establish a museum to exhibit these collections, with the Islamic art collection being documented through a series of meticulously researched and elegantly illustrated catalogues. These catalogues aim to serve as comprehensive surveys of Islamic art, complemented by academic studies and facsimile reproductions of essential manuscripts.In addition to his collecting efforts, Dr Khalili has established a Chair of Islamic Art and Archaeology at the University of London and funded a Research Fellowship in Islamic Art at the University of Oxford. His significant contributions to the field have been acknowledged with honorary fellowships at London University and a position as Visiting Professor in the Department of Art and Archaeology at the School of Oriental and African Studies. Furthermore, he is a co-founder and chairman of the Maimonides Foundation, an organisation dedicated to fostering peace and understanding between Muslim and Jewish communities.The book Occidentalism: Islamic Art in the 19th Century by Stephen Vernoit is included in this context, contributing to the broader dialogue and understanding of Islamic art during that period. Through these initiatives, Dr Khalili not only enhances the understanding of Islamic art but also promotes academic inquiry and intercultural dialogue in the arts. (OS-Y).…
