Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from An Illustrated and Descriptive Catalogue of Rare Old Persian Pottery: With Historical and Other Notes Pertaining to a Private Collection The objects comprised in the following pages of this catalogue were originally collected by an Italian virtuoso, and traveller in the Far East during the last century, when the beauty of such ceramic products coming from Persia began to excite admiration and the cupidity of European connoisseurs, who, noting the isolated appearance of the more ancient varieties, rightly assumed that they must be rare in the East; a fact which soon stimulated the taste for such fascinating bibelots as a desideratum for the cabinet. As the collection under our consideration grew in numbers and importance, it also began to attract the attention of amateurs, and thus became known to a family of connoisseurs and collectors living in Germany, who, being keen to own such examples of the Persian potters art, promptly made it their own. Meanwhile these chefs-d oeuvres were fondly treasured, for two or more generations, in their quaint old German palace, in the living rooms and under the hand and eyes of the master himself, until viewed several times and studied by the present owners, who finally succeeded in persuading the aged amateur to part with his Persian collection of potteries en bloc.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Archaeologists work with broken fragments to build pictures of life in past societies. In many excavations, the most abundant fragments we work with are broken pieces of ceramic vessels and objects (we call them "sherds"), which we find by the thousands in a typical dig. These sherds can tell us quite remarkable things about the past: when a site was occupied in history, what trade contacts it had, and what kinds of everyday activities people were doing there. We can also learn about technologies and how artisans learned and adopted technologies across large areas. The finest ceramics, of course, are true works of art that convey an aesthetic sense that we can appreciate hundreds or thousands of years later. Daily Life Ornamented: The Medieval Persian City of Rayy shows how archaeologists work with sherds at the same time that it portrays aspects of life along the Silk Road during the ninth - fourteenth centuries. It must be said that although the catalogue is based largely on sherds, they are not only interesting as documents of medieval Islamic civilization, but they are also among the most beautiful sherds in the collections of the Oriental Institute. This catalogue, published in conjunction with an exhibition of the same name, also represents an opportunity to re-examine the pioneering work of Erich Schmidt, who excavated the ancient site of Rayy during the mid-1930s.

Download or read book Private Collectors of Islamic Art in Late Nineteenth Century London written by Isabelle Gadoin and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2021-09-09 with total page 232 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book examines British collectors of so-called Persian art (a broad umbrella term then covering a large portion of Islamic art) in the late 19th century, including ceramics, metalwork, carpets, textiles and woodwork. Based on a foundational event, the very first exhibition of “Persian and Arab Art” held by a London Gentlemen’s Club in 1885, this book follows one generation of men, retracing the subtle shades of difference among “amateurs,” “connoisseurs,” “experts” and “collectors,” and exploring all the mechanisms of the construction of a collective fascination for the Orient. Isabelle Gadoin uncovers some of the first “scientific” analyses of Islamic objects and of the first private notebooks or exhibition catalogues, to provide an in-depth study of the way Westerners talked about Islamic objects and began to define what would become Islamic art history. All the while, Gadoin unravels the skein of Western prejudice, Romantic fancy, sincere admiration and ruthless appropriation, in art collecting, to write a new chapter of Orientalist history. The book will be of interest to scholars working in art history, history of collecting, colonialism and postcolonialism, and Orientalism.
