Notes d'archéologie musulmane ..

Migeon, Gaston, 1861-1930 · 1905 · 5 pictures

Notes d'archéologie musulmane is a scholarly French archaeology monograph by Gaston Migeon, published in Paris in 1905 for specialists in Islamic art. Its plates show carved ceramic and stone fragments from Mesopotamia and Persia, including a twelfth-century terracotta relief with animals and interlace, a carved medallion, and a domed lidded vessel with arcaded bands. A designer could draw on their dense interlace borders, arcade rhythms, and animal motifs.
