EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a square tile from the Abbasid period, dating back to the late 12th-early 13th century. Created by an unknown artist, this exquisite piece represents the rich artistic heritage of the Middle East. The tile is part of a larger collection housed in the renowned Arthur M Sackler Gallery, which is affiliated with the Smithsonian Institution. Crafted using stone paste and painted under glaze, this ceramic masterpiece displays intricate details and vibrant colors that have stood the test of time. Although partially deteriorated due to its age, it still retains its allure and religious significance as an Islamic artifact. Originating from Raqqa in Syria, this tile reflects both cultural and historical influences prevalent during that era. Its lustreware technique adds a touch of elegance to its overall design. Displayed within educational institutions such as art centers and galleries like Freer Gallery of Art, this remarkable object serves as a valuable resource for studying ancient civilizations and their architectural elements. It offers insights into the craftsmanship and creativity that flourished during the Abbasid dynasty. As we admire this photograph print captured by Heritage Images, we are reminded of how art transcends time and connects us to our past.
