Having isolated them, these features attained the status of diagnostics. Visual extrapolation opened up a process in which unsigned works were identified as being made in the early, middle, or late stages of the artist’s life (underwritten by the teleological concept of the artist’s evolution, of his inexorable stylistic trajectory), in relationship to fixed points in his dated corpus. Then attributed works were judged for their authenticity, fleshing out the oeuvre still further. The method is a long established one in the discipline of the history of art, and it was used yet again in Ebadollah Bahari’s recent monograph on Bihzad.8 But, as we shall see, this method of stylistic analysis, more specifically its operative conditions, is actually ill-suited to certain aspects of the practice of painting in the Persianate milieu of the late fifteenth and early sixteenth century. Since the early 1900’s scholars have championed Bihzad, and although their motivations are rarely stated, a desire to promote an individual artist in an art tradition believed to comprise so many anonymous makers does come to the fore. Here, at long last emerged an artist who could rival the European art tradition’s list of heroes: F. R. Martin, writing in 1909 and 1912, raved about Bihzad, asking rhetorically whether or not his portraits matched those of Memling, Holbein, and Raphael; Ali Ahmad Naimi, writing as late as 1948, compared Bihzad to Jean Fouquet and François Clouet. 9 Comparisons between Bihzad and European artists were positively de rigueur. One unspoken reason behind the adulation may have been to enhance the saleability of a “nameable” artist on the early-twentieth-century art market.10 But without inspecting such fundamental aspects of the field’s social and economic culture, the construction and refinement of Bihzad’s role qua painter in the Persianate tradition has continued unchallenged,11 despite more recent attempts to adjust our vision of him. Thomas Lentz proposed a curative of sorts in Bihz ̧d was one of the painters. He painted extremely delicately, but he made the faces of beardless people badly by drawing the double chin too big. He drew the faces of bearded people quite well.","PeriodicalId":39506,"journal":{"name":"Muqarnas","volume":"28 1","pages":"119-146"},"PeriodicalIF":0.4,"publicationDate":"2000-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"83660879","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"艺术学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Some, adducing pictorial evidence from the other arts, such as ceramics, have argued that manuscript illustration had been practiced for a long time in the Islamic lands, although no illustrated manuscripts actually survive from early times.2 Others have traced this explosion of illustrated books to external influences, such as artists in the Islamic lands copying Middle Byzantine or Syrian Jacobite painting,3 while still others have argued that the appearance of illustrated manuscripts was the result of an internal development, specifically the emergence of the bourgeoisie as patrons of this new art form.4 Oddly enough, few if any scholars have linked the emergence of the illustrated book to the introduction and increasing use of paper.5 Paper was introduced to the Islamic lands from Central Asia in the eighth century and was quickly adopted for use in government offices.6 The oldest surviving book on \"Arab\" or \"Islamic\" paper is generally thought to be a Greek manuscript of the teachings of the Church fathers (Vat. Gr. 2200), believed to have been copied in Damascus ca. 800. Apart from a manuscript in the Alexandria public library recently discovered by the Israeli scholar Malachi Beit-Arie,7 the oldest surviving book on paper in Arabic (in Europe) is a work in Leiden on unusual terms in the prophetic traditions, which is dated Dhu'l-Qa'da 252 (November-December 867).

They have spent less time studying the papers used to support and surround the flowing calligraphy, though these too are often exquisitely tinted and decorated to contribute to this dazzling display. This somewhat lopsided approach reflects the interests of earlier researchers, who preferred paintings to paper. Traditionally, published reproductions show just the miniature or a detail of the illumination and crop the surrounding margins which are often done on colored and decorated paper.' This was the case, for example, in virtually all the miniatures illustrated in the Survey of Persian Art.2 Even such a groundbreaking work as Basil Gray's 1979 volume, The Arts of the Book in Central Asia, which included separate chapters on calligraphy, illumination, and binding, had no discussion of paper, and most of the illustrations in it are cropped to show only the miniatures and not the margins.3 More recent investigations, however, focus on the complete page, including calligraphy and margin, and one of the peripheral purposes of this paper is to encourage reproductions of full rather than cropped pages. Another is to encourage further study and publication of the basic physical aspects of manuscripts. A third is to investigate the connection between technological innovation and descriptions of it in medieval times.","PeriodicalId":39506,"journal":{"name":"Muqarnas","volume":"35 6 1","pages":"24-36"},"PeriodicalIF":0.4,"publicationDate":"2000-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"89132736","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"艺术学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
