Soft cover. Condition: Near Fine. No Jacket. 1st Edition. English text; Paperback; 17.5 x 24 cm, 0.4 Kg; 128 pages with 83 colour and 25 black-and-white illustrations; Used with minor signs of wear on the exterior. Interior as new.; Some of the greatest glories of Ottoman art are the luxurious ceramic vessels and splendid tiles made to decorate newly founded mosques and palaces by the Turkish pottery at Iznik (ancient Nicaea). Their designs combine purely Turkish motifs with elements ingeniously transposed from imported Chinese blue-and- white porcelain. Over time a more subtle painterly style and complex palette were developed, culminating in the brilliant combination of cobalt blue, turquoise, olive green, magenta and red, which became the internationally recognized Iznik hallmark. Iznik ceramics were highly prized far beyond the Ottoman empire, and although the factories had passed their peak by the late seventeenth century, their influence lived on through nineteenth-century European imitations by such potters as William de Morgan and Cantagalli. This fascinating introduction tells the story of Iznik ceramics through a wealth of illustrations. Most are drawn from the world-famous collection of the British Museum. Professor John Carswell retired as Director of the Islamic Department at Sotheby's. He was previously Director of the Smart Museum and Curator of the Oriental Institute Museum at the University of Chicago and was Professor of Fine Arts at the American University of Beirut for twenty years. He has written extensively on Turkish and Islamic ceramics, blue-and-white Chinese porcelain, and Islamic art and architecture. His publications include Blue-and-White: Chinese Porcelain around the World.…

Hardcover. Condition: New. Dust Jacket Condition: New. 1st Edition. 370 by 26.5 cm. 384pp. with 991 illustrations, 303 in colour. Among the finest works of art produced in the Ottoman Empire, the ceramic vessels of Iznik were the work of artists renowned for the splendid tile revetments which adorn the monuments of Istanbul. The technical quality of this pottery and the immediacy of its designs have long made it one of the most popular ceramics from the Islamic world. The Iznik ceramic industry was established and patronised by the Sultans' Court, and its successive stylistic phases reflect the major changes in Ottoman taste from the late 15th to the 17th century. Starting with the elaborate arabesque style of the late 15th century and gradually developing into the bold and vibrant naturalism of the second half of the 16th century, the decorative repertoire of the potters included a phase when Iznik pottery was influenced by Chinese Yuan and Ming blue and white procelain. Based on many years of research, this study establishes a firm typology and chronology for these wares, and fully documents every distinct group. FIRST EDITION, NEW OLD STOCK.…

Format in-4°( 28,5 x 26 cm )( 1725 gr ). ------ 336 pages avec 500 illustrations en couleurs . ************ "" Dans le monde de l'art islamique, Iznik évoque les fameux carreaux de céramiques qui couvrent la plupart des grands monuments de Turquie (mosquées, palais, mausolées), ainsi que les nombreuses pièces de forme (plats, pichets) produites dans la ville du même nom. Il s'agit de l'une des plus étourdissantes productions de céramiques élaborées pendant la grande période de l'Empire ottoman aux XVIe-XVIIe siècles. Historiens, spécialistes des arts du feu et archéologues tombèrent sous le charme de la variété des décors et coloris de cette production de céramique méditerranéenne ; celle-ci se révèle être l'aboutissement et la synthèse particulièrement réussis de traditions antérieures du monde byzantin, du Proche-Orient islamique et de la Chine, transmises par la route de la Soie. Ce livre présente pour la première fois dans son intégralité la plus importante collection de céramiques ottomanes conservée en France, au musée de la Renaissance du château d'Écouen. C'est sans doute dans cette collection que s'exprime le mieux le génie des artistes d'Iznik. Elle constitue l'un des plus beaux répertoires de formes et de motifs de la production d'Iznik au sommet de sa gloire. Le nombre de pièces, leur variété, la maîtrise parfaite de la couleur font de ce livre un catalogue unique en son genre. "" ************ ref 44e55.…
