This book was published for the exhibit of works from the permanent collection of the future Aga Khan Museum in Toronto. Unveiling a unique collection of works of Islamic art, it reveals something previously unknown: the Islamic world’s admiration for creations hailing from Europe and China.
In addition to Safavid ceramics, Persian miniatures and bronze productions, this prestigious collection also contains pages of the Koran demonstrating the Shi’ite art of calligraphy.
