The pieces photographed here have been shown in exhibitions around the world, and are finally pulled together into one grand catalog.

An appreciation for beauty connects all cultures and by making these rare pieces accessible to anyone seeking the beauty of Islam, The Arts of Islam hopes to contribute to a broadening of understanding between cultures and faiths.
