Discover Islamic Art: Manuscript Art with Museum of Islamic Art Sharjah

Calligraphy and book illustration became an art form in Arab Islamic civilization, where artists innovated new scripts and elements for decoration and gilding. Osman Fidan, Senior Researcher at Sharjah Museum of Islamic Civilization, shows us the exquisite detail and history of a Qur’anic manuscript considered to be one of the greatest Ottoman manuscripts at the museum.
