"In this book... Dr. Okasha surveys the relation of Islam itself to Islamic paintnig and tries to explain an apparent paradox-that while Islam has nevertheless pervaded and inspired the art of the Persians, Arabs and Turks since their conversion to its doctrines, there is little in Islam that corresponds to the paintings of Biblical and legendary subjects so common in Christian Europe."- Dust jacket Contents include: The prohibition of figurative art in Islam -- Some contrasts with Western European painting -- Religious painting in Islam -- Representations of the Prophet Muhammad -- Representations of other prophets -- Painting and mysticism -- Heaven and Hell.
