This first supplement to Islamic Art takes as its subject the painted ceilings of the 12th-century Palatine Chapel in Palermo, Italy, with studies by Jeremy Johns and Ernst J Grube. Johns contributes an essay on the date of the ceiling; Grube investigates the stylistic and iconographic background against which the ceiling took its complex and intricate shape, and its painted decoration.
