Arab Art / Arabische Kunst / L'Art Arabe: The Complete Plates From L'Art Arabe and the Oriental Album / Samtliche Tafeln aus L'Art Arabe und Oriental Album / Toutes les planches de L'Art Arabe et de L'Oriental Album Hardcover, November 1, 2010 by Emile Prisse D'Avennes (Author), Sheila Blair (Contributor), Jonathan S. Bloom (Contributor)
Prisse d'Avennes's Dazzling Compendia of Islamic Art and Architecture
Emile Prisse d'Avennes(1807-1879), a French Orientalist, author and artist, was one of the greatest pre-20th century Egyptologists. An ardent admirer of the superb skills of Egyptian and Oriental artisans, he was enamored of Arabic art. As a youth he dreamed of exploring the Orient, and at 19 began travelling to Greece, India, and Palestine. Over the next 40 years he explored Syria, Arabia, Persia, and resided in Egypt and Algeria. Converting to Islam, he travelled Egypt disguised as an Arab, using the name Edris Effendi. A student of ancient Egyptian and Islamic cultures, he later wrote: "We shall discuss all the arts, all the industries cultivated by Orientals with so much taste, brilliance, and fantasy. We will present splendid reproductions of the monuments, objects of art and luxury, which provide evidence of an advanced civilization, the influence of which has been felt even in Europe."
In 1848/1851 Prisse d'Avennes published his Oriental Album in London(Oriental Album. Characters, Costumes, and Modes of Life, the Valley of the Nile)
This brilliant collection of 32 chromolithographs illustrating the people and costumes of the Nile Valley was accompanied by a commentary by renowned Orientalist and Egyptologist James Augustus St. John. After again travelling to North Africa, Prisse d'Avennes returned to France in 1860, bearing the fruits of his journeyshundreds of folio drawings, photographs, sketches, plans and 400 meters of bas-reliefs. Fascinated by the symmetry, complexity, and opulence of Egyptian and Arabic art, he drew from this vast collection to create compilations of the finest examples of art and architecture, which also took into account historical, social, and religious contexts. In 1877, he published his outstanding survey on Islamic art and architecture.

Προβολή μετάφρασηςvraagje heb 2 stukken gekocht: verzendkosten = 40 euro per stuk=80 euro EEN (1) pakket ontvangen(2 stukken) waarom 2 x verzendkosten!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! betalen!!!!
Προβολή μετάφρασηςI usually ship each item individually and that explains reason for Euro 40 per parcel. However, on this specific occasion I combined the 2 crystal items in one DHL box to save shipment cost.
Fast delivery, item was very well packaged and in good condition.
