Ottoman Chic Hardcover – November 11, 2014

The great Ottoman Empire was a glorious period of the Turkish history, but I was not really familiar with the arts and culture and the influence it had on the world until I saw this book and realized what they have contributed to the history in the world of the arts and culture. This book opens up a whole new world to one of the few countries in the world who is in the cross road of the western and middle eastern world. An interesting mix and make a unique Turkish art.

This beautiful book was on daughter-in-law's wish-list for Christmas--she is thrilled with it!

would liked to have had glossier pictures

Culture of the century

One of the best books ever picked :)

Sent it back. BORING. I thought I was going to learn something. Just another, "Look at my beautiful home. I'm rich and my taste is a snooze." Nice cover tho.

Gorgeous photography as only Assouline can do. This volume is well worth the money.

I especially favored the rich textures and colors displayed!
