Review

Texts by Godfrey Godwin and others in English.  124 color, 10 duo-tone, 21 line drawings.  Outstanding full-page color photographs by Ahmet Ertug on the history of the silk trade during 15th-17th centuries and on the formation of the Ottoman silk capital, Bursa.  Numerous examples of Bursa silks are presented along with the architecture, tiles and decorative arts. - review by Johnny de Falbe
