Studies in Chinese and Islamic Art, Volume II
Chinese Ceramics and Islamic Art
by Basil Gray
Basil Gray’s second volume explores Chinese ceramics as a key influence on Islamic art. The book spans 40 years of research, including Persian manuscript painting, Turkish and Indian illumination, Chinese impact on Persian art, textiles, and glass.
This second volume of Basil Gray’s studies covers his work on Chinese ceramics and on Islamic art. Appropriately, Chinese ceramics proved the most potent medium in introducing Islamic artists to the motifs of Chinese painting, in view of their wide popularity in the Middle East. The articles on Islamic art were written over a period of forty years. Early studies on Persian manuscript painting of the Mongol period are followed by papers on Turkish and Indian manuscript illumination, and general studies on Chinese influence in Persian painting, and on textiles and glass.
