When Love for the Prophet Becomes Art (Art Ebook) l 114 MB

A thriving hub of cultural enrichment, Ottoman istanbul was renowned for its glorification of the beauty of Islam through art.

A glossy soft-cover volume produced by the Association of International Art and Culture (UKSD), When Love for the Prophet Becomes Art sheds light upon the spiritual significance of two manifestations of this great tradition: Hilye ?erif (The Noble Hilye), a form of classic calligraphic art portraying the physical and spiritual attributes of Prophet Muhammad and the use of the tesbih (prayer beads) for ruminative prayer.

The book, as visually fluid as it is informative, was published as a lasting memento of a pioneering exhibition, Classic and Contemporary Examples of Turkish Art: Hilye ?erif and Tesbih, which was hosted in Rome in October. The first time that a collection of Hilye ?erif had been exhibited outside of Europe, the project was initiated with the intention of raising the profile of Turkish art in one of Europes most prominent cultural centers.
