Islamic Art Supplement: The Painted Ceilings of the Cappella Palatina [HB]

This first supplement to Islamic Art takes as its subject the painted ceilings of the 12th-century Palatine Chapel in Palermo, Italy, with studies by Jeremy Johns and Ernst J Grube.

Johns contributes an essay on the date of the ceiling; Grube investigates the stylistic and iconographic background against which the ceiling took its complex and intricate shape, and its painted decoration.

The book is richly illustrated with 832 illustrations, 165 of them in colour.
