A book to have!4
A great book which documents Islamic pattern work very intricately and with accuracy that Muslims would be proud of. Eva pulls together the origins of Islamic art to reflect underlying ideology between art & religion in Islam and the communication of God's creation on earth. The book will give you a small insight into the mathematical world of Islamic art & decoration. A great buy for a very cheap price.
