A magnificent visual history of the Middle Eastern fairy tales that inspired European illustrators

This is the first collection of shichigoro-shingo’s digital paintings, encompassing both his personal and commercial works

Middle Eastern literature and poetry, including Arabian Nights and Rubaiyat of Omar Khayyam, has captured the imaginations of European people with its mysterious atmosphere and tales of exotic lands. From the 18th to the early 20th century, various European editions of these stories were published that included imaginative illustrations by notable European illustrators such as Kai Nielsen, Edmund Durac and others.

As an emerging young artist based in Tokyo, shichigoro-shingo is already gaining a reputation worldwide for his illustration work. In 2015, he attracted attention with eyecatching contributions to a TV commercial for Tokyo Mode Gakuen, and also held a solo exhibition in Russia. Other recent work includes cover art for CLARKESWORLD MAGAZINE (nominated for the Chesley Award 2016 for Best Cover Illustration) and SEVEN WONDERS OF A ONCE AND FUTURE WORLD by Caroline M. Yoachim (Fairwood Press) in the U.S. He has also collaborated with Australian apparel company Black Milk Clothing.

This book is a visual art collection of the world featured in such European illustrations and introduces the ancient Islamic manuscripts and art on which the illustrations are based. Islamic book design, ornaments and costumes of the time are also featured, giving readers a broad sense of the Islamic culture that has so inspired European artists. This collection offers a unique introduction to the beauty of Islamic art and culture and is sure to become a treasured book for Islamic art lovers, too.

Characteristic of his paintings are distinctive combinations of textures - iron rust and skin, wire and black hair, bolts and fur. His work shows us the beauty in the organic and the inorganic coming together as one. These gorgeously detailed illustrations are sure to inspire readers’ imaginations.
