This is followed by twelve articles representative of the scope of scholarship published in \u003ci\u003eMuqarnas\u003c\/i\u003e over the years--from the reception of Chinese ceramics in early modern South Asia, and an analysis of Humayun's tomb-garden in Mughal Delhi, to studies of the Samanid mausoleum in Bukhara, a lavish Abu'l-Khairid Shāhnāma, the \u003ci\u003eMevlevīḫāne\u003c\/i\u003e of Salonica, the House of Paintings in the Alhambra, and the reordering of Galata and Pera's urban space in nineteenth-century Istanbul.
