Item description from seller

From the Jacket flap: "The collection of Prince Sadruddin Aga Khan contains some of the world's finest examples of painting and calligraphy and is perhaps the most important private Muslim collection of Islamic art. This volume, richly illustrated with 24 color plates and 101 black-and-white photographs, provides a brief history of the collection and offers a generous selection of paintings, manuscripts, calligraphies, bindings, and drawings that spans the geographic range of Islamic art from North Africa to India. Detailed discussions of each illustration introduce readers to the major patrons and artists in the development of the arts of the precious book." Very Good. Slight crimping to top of contents page, otherwise appears to be in unread condition. Good. Jacket shows some wear to extremities, and is slightly scuffed. 4to. (9" x 11.25") in blue boards with silver titles to spine, and blue pictorial jacket.

Store description

From the wilds of rural Southeast Minnesota, I scour the countryside for hidden paper treasures. I satisfy my urge to collect things by doing this and enjoy getting Items into fellow collectors' hands. From a young age, I've been enamored by paper and books. There's a (more than likely apocryphal) story about my grandmother presenting me with a pile of books and a pile of toys as a baby and I went straight to the books.
