Exhibition: The Arts of the Book - Muslim and Christian Manuscripts

Friday 20 November

Parker Library, Corpus Christi College, Cambridge, CB2 1 RH

Explore and compare Islamic and Christian manuscripts at the Parker Library in Cambridge.

The exhibition will feature examples of Ottoman Islamic paper marbling art drawn into dialogue with medieval Christian manuscripts in the unique space of the Parker Library, the leading centre for medieval Anglo-Saxon manuscripts in the United Kingdom. Rarely opened to the general public, this exhibition will offer attendees the opportunity to revel in wonder at the vast collection of Christian Anglo-Saxon manuscript art and reflect on similarities and differences with ebru, the Turkish tradition of paper marbling.
