Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This comprehensive and richly illustrated catalogue focuses on the finest illustrated manuscripts produced in Europe during the great epoch in Flemish illumination. During this aesthetically fertile period – beginning in 1467 with the reign of the Burgundian duke Charles the Bold and ending in 1561 with the death of the artist Simon Bening – the art of book painting was raised to a new level of sophistication. Sharing inspiration with the celebrated panel painters of the time, illuminators achieved astonishing innovations in the handling of color, light, texture, and space, creating a naturalistic style that would dominate tastes throughout Europe for nearly a century. Centering on the notable artists of the period – Simon Marmion, the Vienna Master of Mary of Burgundy, Gerard David, Gerard Horenbout, Bening, and others – the catalogue examines both devotional and secular manuscript illumination within a broad context: the place of illuminators within the visual arts, including artistic exchange between book painters and panel painters; the role of court patronage and the emergence of personal libraries; and the international appeal of the new Flemish illumination style. Contributors to the catalogue include Maryan W. Ainsworth, curator of European paintings at the Metropolitan Museum of Art; independent scholar Catherine Reynolds; and Elizabeth Morrison, assistant curator of manuscripts at the Getty Museum. Illuminating the Renaissance is published in conjunction with an exhibition organized by the Getty Museum, the Royal Academy of Arts, London, and the British Library to be held at the Getty Museum from June 17 to September 7, 2003, and at the Royal Academy of Arts from November 25, 2003 to February 22, 2004.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Behind the Veil in Persia and Turkish Arabia: An Account of an Englishwoman's Eight Years' Residence Amongst the Women of the East is an account by Mary Hume-Griffith, the wife of Dr. Albert Hume-Griffith, a British medical missionary, of living and working in Persia (Iran) and the Turkish province of Mosul (in present-day northern Iraq) in the years 1900-1908. While her husband was engaged in medical work, Mary Hume-Griffith spent much time in the company of women, whose culture behind closed doors in andarun (women's quarters) she generally describes with sensitivity. Her intention is "to give some account of the inner life of the East." The book's principal interest is in the entrée she enjoyed to the households of various social classes. The Hume-Griffiths spent three years in the Iranian cities of Kerman, Isfahan, and Yazd, to which Mrs. Hume-Griffith devotes several chapters that cover such diverse topics as local folklore, advice on buying carpets, and the handling of servants. Throughout the work, she offers descriptions of and comments on the condition of women. For all her access to the andarun, the author is decorously silent on most matters relating to marriage and on the topics of childbirth and child care. She does, however, decry the insecure status of the wives. She pays significant attention to the religious and ethnic minorities in Iran and northern Iraq, devoting chapters to the Baha'is, Parsees, Yazidis, Jews, Kurds, and Christians of various denominations. The chapters on public health and medical treatment are by Albert Hume-Griffith, based on his experiences as a medical missionary. The book is well illustrated with photographs by colleagues or from the files of the Church Missionary Society for Africa and the East, the London-based organization that sponsored the mission.
