This is the first catalogue of blue and white Persian ceramics of the Safavid dynasty. It is a catalogue raisonné of the collection in the Victoria and Albert Museum, the largest in the world, consisting of over 500 ceramics mainly from the 17th and 18th centuries.
Yolande Crowe has written extensively on the architecture and decorative arts of Islam. A particular preoccupaton has been the relationship between these arts and their Chinese prototypes, especially the blue and white porcelains of Jingdezhen. She has also worked on archeological material from Islamic sites in Afghanistan and Iran.
