The arts of fire

The outer archives are busy

by Catherine Hess, Linda Komaroff, George Saliba

About this book

"Published to coincide with an exhibition at the J. Paul Getty Museum, The Arts of Fire demonstrates how many of the techniques of glass and ceramic production and ornamentation were first developed in the Islamic East between the eighth and twelfth centuries. Essays by volume editor Catherine Hess and by Linda Komaroff and George Saliba demonstrate early modern Europe's debt to the Islamic world and help us better understand the interrelationships of cultures over time."--BOOK JACKET
