Hardcover. Zustand: New. Zustand des Schutzumschlags: New. 1st Edition. 336 pages : illustrations (chiefly colour), colour map ; 30 cm. Summary:"The Iranian Plateau extends for close to 2,000 km, encompassing dizzying mountain ranges, rolling hills, forests and rich farm lands. It has been home to some of the greatest civilizations of both the ancient and medieval worlds, with spectacular achievements in scholarship and material culture - but these remain poorly known internationally. This lavishly illustrated publication tells the story of Iran from the dawn of the historical period in 5,000 BC to today. It is unique in combining the ancient and Islamic periods as well as contemporary art, from sculpture to goldsmiths' work, from ceramics and glass to illustrated manuscripts, and from textiles and carpets to oil paintings, drawings and photographs. 'Epic Iran' powerfully conveys the beauty and fragility of Iranian art and opens our eyes to the attainments of a tenacious and fascinating culture."-- Publisher's description.…
