  • New Draft of Art Historiography Article
    Regarding the exhibition: the Munich exhibition Masterpieces of Muhammadan Art (1910) and its scholarly position Eva-Maria Troelenberg ‘Muhammadan art’ in the Weltstadt It was the cultural event of the year 1910:1 on 14 May, the municipal exhibition ground in Munich’s Theresienhöhe opened its gates to an unprecedented and exotic event, the exhibition Masterpieces of Muhammadan Art. This mammoth undertaking featured more than 3,600 artworks from approximately 250 international collections, museums and institutions and was installed in eighty halls (figure 1). * This paper summarizes and partially expands some aspects of my dissertation, which is the first comprehensive and contextualized monograph on the Munich exhibition Masterpieces of Muhammadan Art (Meisterwerke muhammedanischer Kunst): Eva-Maria Troelenberg, Eine Ausstellung wird besichtigt. Die Münchner ‘Ausstellung von Meisterwerken muhammedanischer Kunst’ 1910 in kultur- und wissenschaftsgeschichtlicher Perspektive, Frankfurt and Berlin: Peter Lang, 2011. For the sake of brevity, I will not refer to every corresponding section of my own book in this paper. For specific facets of the Munich show see also the contributions in Andrea Lermer and Avinoam Shalem, eds, After One Hundred Years. The 1910 Exhibition ‘Meisterwerke muhammedanischer Kunst’ Reconsidered, Leiden and Boston: Brill, 2010; as well as the catalogue for the exhibition The Future of Tradition – The Tradition of Future, which was held at Haus der Kunst in Munich in 2010-11: see Chris Dercon, León Krempel and Avinoam Shalem, eds, The Future of Tradition – The Tradition of Future. 100 years after the exhibition Masterpieces of Muhammadan Art in Munich, Munich, London and New York: Prestel, 2010. Apart from these publications, which were prompted by the centenary of the event, and appeared almost simultaneously, the 1910 Munich exhibition had been addressed by several scholars who have touched upon it within larger contexts of art history, historiography or museology, most notably: David J.

  • What Do We Mean When We Say Islamic Art?
    What do we mean when we say ‘Islamic art’? A plea for a critical rewriting of the history of the arts of Islam Avinoam Shalem In a book published in 2008, Arnold Hottinger provocatively asserted that as far as the Western stance toward Islam is concerned, Islam does not exist.1 He argued correctly that it is pure fiction to speak about Islam using one sole, monolithic and global term. Moreover, he added that the desire to see in the wide-ranging and diverse ‘worlds of Islam’ a homogenous sphere called Islam is simply an abstract cognitive notion, which, as with any general concept, has its sole origin in the mind of the person who creates this concept or theory. It is quite clear, then, that Hottinger, like many other scholars of Islamic studies, developed his ideas in the critical ‘Post-Edwardian Era’; that is, the period following the death of Edward Said in 2003, in which renewed discussion has taken place around his renowned book Orientalism, first published in 1978.2 The ‘imaginary Orient’, as termed by Linda Nochlin in 1983,3 is not restricted to Western literature but impinges on many other fields and is undoubtedly rooted in the history of European thought, especially in the construction of the image of its major ‘Other’ and the creation of its own historical narrative. And yet, this critical notion can and should also be applied to the field of art history in general, and to the construction of the field of Islamic art history within the larger discipline of Western art history in particular.

  • Ernst E. Herzfeld
    116 OBITUARY The Booh of Wisdom and Lies (Kelmscott Press) and Visramiani (Oriental Translation Fund). His interest in everything relating to Georgia dated from the period of his youthful travels in that country, of which he published an account as early as 1888. W. FOSTER. Ernst E. Herzfeld Few scholars of our generation have contributed so much to increasing our knowledge of the sources for the study of ancient Western Asia in periods or directions of which little was previously known as Ernst Herzfeld. An established scholar of considerable reputation not only in his own University, Berlin, by 1910, his early work was encouraged by Eduard Meyer, the historian, and aided by the active co-operation of Friedrich Sarre, whose outstanding achievements there has yet been little chance to appreciate. Friend- ship and co-operation with Koldewey and the archaeological archi- tects of the mission of the Deutsche Orient-Gesellschaft in Iraq, led him to admire their methods and made him a sound field- worker, without obscuring his firm understanding of the necessity for combining the study of language and history with archaeology if the tasks before him were to be accomplished. His training fitted him for the very diverse tasks he undertook. On his many journeys he continually noted new sites, and thus pointed the way for many later excavations, particularly in Persia. At some sites already well known he carried out fresh work unex- pectedly rich in results, notably at Samarra and Persepolis. He continually brought to our attention neglected subjects, such as the nature of the metal-working craft in the first millennium B.C.

  • Friedrich Sarre and the Discovery of Seljuk Anatolia
    Friedrich Sarre and the discovery of Seljuk Anatolia Patricia Blessing The German art historian Friedrich Sarre (1865-1945) is well known for his role in the excavations of the Abbasid palaces of Samarra (Iraq) from 1911-13, which he directed together with Ernst Herzfeld (1879-1948), and as the director of the Islamic collection in the Berlin Museums from 1921 until 1931. Less well studied is Sarre’s work on Seljuk art and architecture, which presents some of the earliest studies of the subject during a period in the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries when Islamic art history was a nascent academic field. Sarre’s work on medieval Anatolia has been analysed neither in the context of early studies on Seljuk architecture, nor in the general account of the emergence of Islamic art history as a field of scholarship. In a recent article, Oya Pancaroğlu has focused on Sarre’s first book on Anatolia, Reise in Kleinasien (Journey in Anatolia). 1 This travel account is based on Sarre’s exploration of the area in 1895, which lead to his wider interest in Islamic architecture. Sarre’s later work, however, much of which also includes work on the Seljuk monuments of Konya and on Seljuk art more broadly, has not yet been investigated in the context of the early art historical literature on Seljuk Anatolia. Sarre’s work remains rooted in the earlier vein of scholarship on Islamic art, particularly valuing Persianate objects and buildings. Thus, this article argues that, unlike many scholars who worked on the arts of Anatolia in the 1920s and 1930, after the foundation of the Republic of Turkey, Sarre didn’t focus on the region as the cradle of a nation, nor did he study Seljuk art as an expression of Turkish culture.

Following defeat by Anglo-Ottoman forces, France surrenders to Britain the Egyptian antiquities it has collected. The way is open for British exploration of Egyptian archaeology. 1802 Germany Rediscovering The Past The first Chair of Archaeology is appointed at the Christian-Albrechts-Universität in Kiel. 1806 - 1921 Jordan Rediscovering The Past The 19th century is the age of rediscovery and of opening up the monuments and sites of the Ancient East to Western civilisation. Most ancient sites of Transjordan such as Petra, Jerash, Gadara (Umm Qays), Amra, Umm al-Rasas, Mushatta and many others are explored, documented and identified during the 19th century. 1808 United Kingdom Rediscovering The Past Claudius Rich is appointed East India Company Resident at Baghdad. His work at Babylon and Nineveh stimulates European interest in the archaeology of Iraq. East India Company men play a major role in the exploration and mapping of the Middle East. 1810 - 1850 Tunisia Rediscovering The Past Travellers and explorers of modern times have scoured and described the Regency of Tunis.
