Illustrated with drawings and photographs. Book begins with the battle cry of the Arabs whey they burst over the borders of Arabia to conquer the world. The art of the conquered craftsmen blended together under the rule of the Arabs.
The story of Moslem art begins thirteen centuries ago. ...Now, as masters of an empire, the Arabs could command the services of craftsmen and artists from Egypt, Syria, Greece and Persia--countries with traditions of art going back hundred of years. The arts of these conquered craftsmen, blended together under the rule of the Arabs, form what we know as Moslem, or Islamic, art.
