SUMMARY:The sultan, the merchant, the peasant, and the gravedigger: Medieval Islamic Ceramics in Context
DESCRIPTION:A Lecture by Professor Scott Redford.\nWestern European & North American collecting of Islamic ceramics was, and continues to be, affected by two biases: a developed taste for Chinese ceramics and a western artistic affinity for figural art. What might different histories of medieval Islamic ceramics be?\nBasing itself on archaeology, materials science analysis of Islamic and allied ceramic traditions, and a critical look at the academic study of medieval Islamic ceramics, this lecture aims to present aspects of the production and consumption of ceramics in medieval Syria, Egypt, and Iran in their social context.\nWe are grateful to Rosebery’s for sponsoring this lecture.\nVenue Access Information: The Society of Antiquaries welcomes wheelchairs and mobility vehicles however since the main entrance consists of steps they will provide a ramp if needed which can be arranged by calling 020 7479 7095 prior to your arrival.  Essential companions are also welcome and Hearing Loops are built into the Lecture Room AV system.
