Carpets made in the Rug Beltan area that includes Morocco, North Africa, the Middle East, Central Asia, and northern Indiahave been a source of fascination and collecting since the 13th century. This engaging and accessible book explores the history, design techniques, materials, craftsmanship, and socioeconomic contexts of these works, promoting a better understanding and appreciation of these frequently misunderstood pieces. Fiftyfive examples of Islamic carpets are illustrated with new photographs and revealing details. The lively texts guide readers, teaching them how to read clues present in the carpets. Walter B. Denny situates these carpets within the cultural and social realm of their production, be it a nomadic encampment, a rural village, or an urban workshop. This is an essential guide for students, collectors, and professionals who want to understand the art of the Islamic carpet.Published by The Metropolitan Museum of Art/Distributed by Yale University Press
