In Arthur Upham Pope and A New Survey of Persian Art, fourteen
scholars explore the legacy of Arthur Upham Pope (1881-1969) by
tracing the formation of Persian art scholarship and
connoisseurship during the twentieth century. Widely considered as
a self-made scholar, curator, and entrepreneur, Pope was credited
for establishing the basis of what we now categorize broadly as
Persian art. His unrivalled professional achievement, together with
his personal charisma, influenced the way in which many scholars
and collectors worldwide came to understand the art, architecture
and material culture of the Persian world. This ultimately resulted
in the establishment of the aesthetic criteria for assessing the
importance of cultural remains from modern-day Iran. With
contributions by Lindsay Allen, Sheila S. Blair, Jonathan M. Bloom,
Talinn Grigor, Robert Hillenbrand, Yuka Kadoi, Sumru Belger Krody,
Judith A. Lerner, Kimberly Masteller, Cornelia Montgomery, Bernard
O'Kane, Keelan Overton, Laura Weinstein, and Donald Whitcomb.
