I can't believe that u didn't mention Arabic calligraphy , u can see Arabic calligraphy in Alhambra palace in spain , in mosques around the world . There's Arabic calligraphy in taj mahel and topkapi palace in turkey .
Thanks for your feedback, this was originally produced with English speaking students in mind who were taking an “Introduction to Calligraphy” class. The western focus was a time issue, the classes were in-person and didn’t allow for playing a long documentary, this is why the program is presented in three segments to allow for in-class discussion. Part 1 and part 2 both acknowledge the impact of the Chinese and eastern culture on the development of Calligraphy. I’ve considered producing another video that would focus on the Chinese, Arabic, Hebrew and others, focusing on their historic texts and influences. Its wonderful to see the growing interest in Calligraphy!
mimi may I please ask, what is the history of ‘Islamic’ calligraphy? Especially interesting since the quran was not written down even by mohammad, the word first being IQRA which means Recite… I’d be interested as to how they ‘developed’ their writing ability TY 👩🏻💻
I remember (Caligraphy) this as a course. Man. This was a painstaking process.
halos back bby!
2:13 Egypt is Africa, not Europe. That was disingenuous.
Does anyone know what style/font of calligraphy most closely resemble the style used in the treaty of paris from 1783?
Copperplate?
