Achievements: Islamic Art & Calligraphy

The Islamic Golden Age for the arts lasted from 750 to the 16th century, far longer than the entire golden age itself. This was when illuminated manuscripts, ceramics, glasswork, textiles, and woodwork became very prominent in the Islamic Empire. In addition, the art of calligraphy developed due to the belief in the religion of Islam, which is not allowing the paintings of humans. Thus, this artistic practice of writing flourished just as the rest of the arts of the golden age.
