The architecture and decorative art of the Islamic world, particularly Moorish Spain, is illustrated in this book. It shows how it acted as an influence for designers and architects in the 19th and 20th centuries in Europe and America. The 19th century search for styles of architecture and design often involved the exotic. There were strong links to the Orientalist ideas of artist and writers, and these found their way through the work of architects and designers into interiors and facades for many types of building from synagogues to villas, as the Moorish style. Examples are to be found throughout the world, particularly in Europe and the Americas. The style is rooted in conventions of Islamic art as seen in decorative art and in mosques and palaces from Cordoba to Delhi. 19th century Europe became interested in this style through the rediscovery of Moorish Spain and through developing contacts with Ottoman Turkey and British India. The book explains the development and characteristic elements of Islamic art and architecture through the building of mosques, the medium of calligraphy and pattern and through the handling of materials as diverse as ceramic, wood and stone. In the 20th century, the style has continued to be used, not only in numerous cinemas, many of which have also taken their name from the Alhambra, but also in domestic buildings in the American South-West and Florida, and a country club in Kansas City.…

Miles Danby, Professor Emeritus of Architecture at Newcastle University, is an architect and lecturer with a special interest in the buildings of developing countries. Matthew Weinreb is a multi-award winning, internationally renowned photographer specializing in architecture and landscape. He decided to become a photographer in 1981 whilst working in the Cityana photographic gallery. He set out to capture the essence of the city's buildings. He was the first winner of the European award of Architectural Photographer of the year and has won many awards since. He has published nine internationally acclaimed books on London, Paris, Moorish architecture in Spain and Portugal. The oriental influence in Spain and Portugal has left a legacy of extraordinary architecture, celebrated by scholars, poets and artists. In this illustrated book, Miles Danby reveals the multi-layered cultural interactions which took place, and which have in turn provided inspiration for architects through the centuries and around the world. After the collapse of the Roman Empire, the Visigoths conquered the Iberian peninsula, bringing new ideas of architectural form from the eastern Mediterranean. More powerful and pervasive influences arrived with the Muslim invaders in AD 711 and the peninsula was to remain wholly or partly under Islamic rule until 1492. Expansion of the Christian kingdoms in the north led to a decline in Muslim political power, but Alfonso the Wise maintained his court at Toledo in a spirit of tolerance, with Christians, Muslims and Jews all contributing to its rich and sophisticated arts and architecture. The final flowering of the oriental style occurred in the mid-fourteenth century, when a Christian king in Seville, Pedro the Cruel, and Ibn Nasr, the Muslim ruler of Granada, used many of the same skilled craftsmen to build their palaces. The magnificent buildings described range in character from the Nasrid palace of the Alhambra and the Umayyad mosque at Cordoba, to the Mudejar cathedral of Teruel, or the Manueline Palacio Nacional at Sintra. Nineteenth- and twentieth-century legacies include Antoni Gaudi's work and the Modernismo movement in Spain, and the neo-Mudejar style used in the construction of stations and bull-rings. The author describes their aesthetic and structural techniques in detail, with clear and precise language. Specially commissioned color photographs fully illustrate the buildings.
