Arts of Islam; Part Eight: Blessed Arms and Holy Protection

By Jane Fitzpatrick

The arms and armor of historic Islamic military units were adorned with beautiful calligraphy, which is why they have been preserved well
beyond their time on battlefields in modern-day museums.

"Blessed Arms and Holy Protection" is the eighth installation in the Arts of Islam series. Interact with the images and audio at your own
pace, and enjoy this exploration of artifacts from historic battles!
