Oleg Grabar’s seminal study examines the formative centuries of Islamic art, tracing the development of a distinct visual language from the seventh to the tenth century. By analyzing the intersection of Umayyad and Abbasid cultural shifts with architectural and ornamental traditions, this revised edition provides a rigorous framework for understanding the aesthetic foundations of the Islamic world.
