Beautifully illustrated book about the art of the medieval East. East in the classical sense - the Muslim world, stretching from southern Spain to India, as well as China and Japan. The period in some countries is not limited to the Middle Ages, but covers the period from ancient times to the 19th century. The book, written by famous art historians and aimed at high school students of the late last century, will be useful for current students of secondary and some higher educational institutions. And also those adults who once imperceptibly slipped through the student period, but now, "fascinated" by the East and wishing to "refresh" their memory.
