Islamic Art and Its Influence - with hosts Isabelle, Mina, Joe and Matthew
Dettagli
Join us on a fascinating journey to discover the beauty of Islamic art. We will follow in the footsteps of 19th century social influencers and British Orientalist artists including John Frederick Lewis, William Holman Hunt and Arthur Melville. Their paintings of the very different world they encountered in the Ottoman Empire and Persia caused a sensation in Britain and beyond. We’ll explore the characteristics of Islamic art and see how its beauty continues to influence and enthral.
Our presenter will be Isabelle, who is a tour guide at Manchester Art Gallery. We are delighted that Iranian artist/ group member, Mina will be joining us and sharing her observations.
This event will be mainly in English and there will be plenty of opportunities for questions and comments in either Italian or English.
