"The Nature of Islamic Ornament, Part IV: Figural Representation"
1999-09-16 until 2000-01-02
Metropolitan Museum of Art
New york, NY,
USA United States of America
This is the last in a four-part series examining the basic forms and sources of Islamic ornament.
Through about 25 objects in many media chosen primarily from the Museum’s permanent
collection, the exhibition examines the widespread but false perception that figural representation is
never permitted to appear in Islamic art.
The exhibition is made possible by The Hagop Kevorkian Fund.
