This scholarly work delves into the historical and cultural context that shaped Cairo s urban landscape, offering readers a deep understanding of the religious, social, and political influences that contributed to the city's architectural developments. Yeomans provides a detailed examination of various forms of Islamic art found in Cairo, including intricate tile work, woodwork, metalwork, and textiles, illustrating how these elements are integrated into architectural designs. He pays particular attention to the city's most celebrated monuments, such as the Al-Azhar Mosque and the complex of Sultan Hassan, highlighting their architectural features, artistic decorations, and the technical brilliance of their construction. Accompanied by photographs, drawings, and detailed descriptions, the book serves as both a visual and academic guide to Cairo s Islamic buildings. It not only catalogues these historical sites but also discusses the preservation challenges they face today. Through Yeomans' comprehensive coverage, readers gain a profound appreciation for Cairo's unique contribution to Islamic art and architecture. ; Quarto ; 274 pages. Nº de ref. del artículo: LCB61022
