'''''One Thousand Years of Turkish Carpets''''', create by Oktay Aslanapa. The history of oriental carpet-making is intertwined with the lives of people, Turkic people who have migrated through the centuries from Central Asia Westwards. This book begins with a look at early carpet fragments – those prior to the first Turkic migrations. Then the study follows the people west into Muslim lands and then into the non-Muslim world. We see the encounter with the Abbasids (Samarra), the art of the Anatolian Selcuk Period, the Emirate Period and Ottoman times up to the present. Paintings and miniatures abound with depictions of carpets produced during the centuries in this history.
