This book presents six articles published in the 1980s and 1990s by the Dutch scholar Mab van Lohuizen-Mulder, an early proponent of the contribution of artists from Egypt to Late Antique and Early Islamic (Umayyad) building projects around the Mediterranean.These articles examine the role of traveling Egyptian artists--mosaicists, painters, stone carvers, and stucco workers--in the decoration of now-famous buildings and objects, from San Vitale and the Orthodox Baptistery in Ravenna, to the Umayyad 'desert castle' of Qusayr 'Amra and the Great Mosque in Damascus, to the Early Christian throne now in San Marco in Venice.Van Lohuizen-Mulder's original articles are used as a springboard to reconsider how we examine the varied contributions of local and international artists to some of the most expensive and significant churches, mosques, and palaces of the period. In addition to an introduction that contextualises van Lohuizen-Mulder's work, each chapter features new high-quality images and a 'recent work' section in which the editor summarises the state of scholarship on the subject.This book is a key resource for students and researchers interested in arts of Late Antique and Early Islamic Egypt, as well as those engaged more generally with travel, mobility, and exchange in the ancient and medieval Mediterranean.
