100 Master Pieces Mohammedan And Oriental Victoria & Albert Museum - PAPERBACK

About the Book:-Many visitors to the Victoria and Albert Museum will no doubt be glad to carry away with them some general record of the objects included in its various collections. A first attempt to select a hundred masterpieces from the whole wealth of the departments showed that this was an almost impossible task, and it was therefore decided to divide the available material into three groups of a hundred each, the first covering Early Christian and Medieval, the second renaissance and modern, and the third Mohammedan and Oriental art. The word masterpiece has been employed in a liberal sense to include as many as possible of those works of art in the museum which are at once beautiful, important and widely known. This small, fully illustrated book is a review of masterpieces of art (pottery, book illumination, armour, weapons, cisterns, statues in various materials, etc.) held in the collection of the Victoria and Albert Museum in London. About the Author:-The Victoria and Albert Museum (often abbreviated as the V&A) in London is the world's largest museum of applied and decorative arts and design, as well as sculpture, housing a permanent collection of over 2.27 million objects.
