'It is nearly 65 years since Arthur Upham Pope?s majesterial 'Survey of Persian Art' was published by Oxford University Press. Inspired by the great exhibition of Persian art held at Burlington House in 1931, its three large volumes of text and three equally large volumes of black and white plates made it the first and only survey of the architecture and arts of Iran from earliest times to the Qajar period ever attempted in the 20th century and provided a landmark in the study of Iran?s cultural history. The splendour of Iran claims to be 'the first comprehensive study of Persian culture since 1935' and, although it is not physically so large, it is certainly an eye-catching set of volumes and its claim is worth considering. (.) Although the Splendour looks so different from the Survey because of its full colour approach, there is a more fundamental difference in its plates. The Survey often relied on Western collections for its illustrations of the minor arts, especially those of the Islamic period?though there were exceptions, including, for example, some manuscripts from the Gulistan Palace Library. The Splendour, however, draws primarily on pubic and private collections in Iran itself (.). In doing so it inevitably brings to light many interesting objects which have never before been illustrated. This makes the volumes important sources of new material for scholars. Where the Survey and the Splendour differ most radically, however, is in the nature of the texts. Those in the Survey were intended to provide a thorough survey of what was known of Iran?s arts and architecture in the 1930s. Their quality varied but they were all substantial pieces of writing and research. They included large number so high quality drawings, and, in the case of the architectural chapters, many valuable ground plans. They also included footnotes and bibliographical details. In other words, they were attempting to provide a full, scholarly platform for future research. Those of the Splendour, on the other hand, are quite different in objective: they are there to summarise what is known and to encapsulate past scholarship in as concise a way as possible within the limited space available. (.) That said, however, there are sections in these volumes which are of primary importance. (.) What is really exciting about these volumes, however, is the nationality of its authors. The Survey was essentially the work of Western scholars, but, with few exceptions, the texts in the Splendour?s three volumes are by Iranian scholars. That is a huge step forward and it reflects the large number of publications which have been written by Iranian academics and published in Iran since the Revolution, providing histories of cities or of individual sites and buildings, surveys of architectural building forms, or of architectural decoration, or illustrated catalogues of objects in Iranian museums.'
