"Paintings in Islam indicates the place of painting in the culture of the Islamic word, both in relation to those theological circles which condemned the practice of it, and to those persons who, disregarding the prohibitions of religion, consulted their own tastes in encouraging it." "The author begins with a discussion on the attitude of the theologians of Islam towards painting, and the challenges which the art historian faces when studying Islamic art. Using over 60 illustrations, the author covers the origins of painting in Islam, the painters and their manner of working, as well as the subject matter of their paintings. One chapter is dedicated to the Buraaq, the beast on which the Prophet is said to have ridden when he made his ascension to heaven on the occasion of his night journey."--BOOK JACKET.Title Summary field provided by Blackwell North America, Inc.
