Art of the Eastern World
Géza Fehérvári, W. G. Lambert, R.H. Pinder-Wilson and Marian
Wenzel
This book is a catalog of ancient art from Iran (Persia), Mesopotamia, South Arabia, and
Roman period. The pieces depicted in this book all come from the collection of Hadji Baba
Ancient Art Gallery in London. The range and contents of this volume are representative of
those major aspects of Persian and other Middle Eastern art with which Hadji Baba Art
Gallery has been famously associated. The sculptural arts, glass, ceramics and metalwork
are the primary areas discussed. The work covers a wide range of historical periods and
brilliantly illustrates the heights of artistry, skill and workmanship attained by Persian
and other Middle Eastern cultures through the centuries.
Ninety-nine pieces are photographed and produced to the highest publication standards,
cover to cover. This book is a welcomed addition to the libraries and museum book shops as
well as to the private libraries of the lovers of Persian and Middle Eastern art.
