Notes
Islamic art often works on two visual levels: superficial impressions and detailed study. A quick browser can find enjoyment from the vivid color work of the art and designs but those who take the time to look closer will have something much to understand and enjoy. In this tile formed to surround a small hearth, there are solitaries and brunettes dancing, female jugglers, kings lying down drinking wine, advisors sitting in silence, soldiers thinking, and busy musicians filling the formation.
