Abstract:
The transmission of Islamic architectural and artistic influences to the United States intertwines with the histories of Spain, Europe, and the Americas. This study examines the intricate web of connections that facilitated this migration, tracing its roots from early Spanish presence in the Americas to its enduring impact on American art and architecture. Spanish expeditions to the Americas in the 15th and 16th centuries initiated the infusion of Islamic influences into the region's architecture. Influenced by their Islamic heritage from Spain, the explorers played crucial roles in disseminat

Abstract:
Spanish architecture, towards the end of the 19th century and the beginning of the 20th, was characterized by the development of a variety of styles, including Neo-Muslim. The Alhambra of Granada, the Mosque of Cordoba, and the Giralda Tower of Seville, served as inspiration to the design of works that would follow these models, some to a greater extent than others, and would eventually give rise to an architectural trend that would make its way all across Spain. As such, this article attempts to provide some examples of said architecture found in different autonomous communities in Spain, exa

Abstract:
Abstract Traditionally, art historians have viewed the art of medieval Morocco through the lens of Islamic Iberia, which is regarded as the culturally superior center and model for the region. However, more recent studies are beginning to show that, rather than Moroccan patrons and artisans passively absorbing an Andalusi model, the rulers of the Almoravid and Almohad regimes were adopting aspects of this model in very deliberate ways. These studies suggest that Andalusi works of art were part of a conscious appropriation of styles as well as material in a very physical sense, which were imbue

Rapid strides weremade in such diverse fields as art and architecture, agriculture and handicrafts,linguistics and literature, humanities and Social studies, music andpoetry, and the physical and mechanical sciences. In fact, Islamic Spain,known to the Muslim world as al Andalus, served as a bridge for thetransfer of the knowledge and wisdom of Classical Greece to Europe, aprocess that eventually led to the European Renaissance.The achievements of al Andalus will not be discussed

Abstract:
Andalusi residential architecture is often described through planimetry or its internal constructive materiality. However, the real architectural vision of those who inhabited or visited Andalusi palaces or houses was completed by an important decorative epidermis that covered the structural materials and gave these Islamic buildings their final visual impact. Traditionally, the three-dimensional stone and plaster ornamentation has been the most analysed; the pictorial decoration that widely covered plinths has rarely been studied as a whole, despite the numerous remnants documented in recent

Abstract:
If we know so much about Fuad Efendi’s visit to the Alhambra in 1844, entirely ignored by Ottoman and Turkish sources, it is because it made the headlines of the Granada press, partly due to the Ottoman ambassador’s unexpectedly Western looks and attitude. Like him, many of the early Ottoman visitors were high-profile bureaucrats and statesmen of Turkish culture, such as the famous Midhat Pasha, whose limited knowledge on the Alhambra and Al-Andalus came largely from Western sources. True, from the 1860s on, a relative interest for the Andalusian past had begun to inspire a few works in Turkis
