The painted ivories of Norman Sicily count among the most original creations known from medieval Palermo. These small, lavishly decorated objects reveal the fascination of the Norman kings for Islamic art and culture. This is the first book to be devoted exclusively to the Sicilian ivories since 1939. The text, drawn from proceedings of an international conference held in Berlin in 2007, contains essays by Marianne Barrucand, Jonathan Bloom, Anthony Cutler, Thomas Dittelbach, Erica Cruikshank Dodd, Antony Eastmond, Barry Flood, Maria Vittoria Fontana, Eva Hoffman, Lucy-Anne Hunt, Mat Immerzeel, Adeline Jeudy, Martina Müller-Wiener, David Knipp, Mourad Rammah, Mariam Rosser-Owen, Avinoam Shalem, and Bas Snelders.
