✦内容简介——

萨法维丝绸及其对17世纪经济和社会影响的例证

奢华的表面、原创的设计和精湛的技术，使得奢侈纺织品在伊朗萨法维王朝(1501-1722)的社会、文化、宗教和经济生活中发挥了至关重要的作用。织物用于服装、家具甚至建筑，也是权力的重要象征，也是无处不在的艺术表现形式。在17世纪，它们成为伊朗赚钱的经济商品，并通过陆路和海上出口到欧洲和东方，为萨法维帝国创造了巨大的财富和繁荣。通过聘用有才华的设计师，并将丝绸行业置于国家控制之下，阿巴斯一世建立了繁荣的丝绸经济，推动了一个丰富的艺术发展和文化交流的时代。《帝国的时尚：萨法维帝国的纺织品》抓住了这一时刻，展示了这一时期的杰作，辅以手稿插图和肖像，描绘了伊朗社会精英如何穿着丝绸织物。

Magnificent examples of Safavid silks and their impact on 17th-century economy and society

With their sumptuous surfaces, original designs and technical sophistication, luxury textiles played a critical role in the social, cultural, religious and economic life of Safavid Iran (1501–1722). Used for clothing, furnishing and even architecture, fabrics also functioned as important symbols of power and as ubiquitous forms of artistic expression. In the 17th century, they became the most lucrative economic commodity in Iran and were exported by land and sea to both Europe and the East, generating tremendous wealth and prosperity for the Safavid Empire. By employing the most talented designers and bringing the industry under state control, Shah 'Abbas I built a flourishing silk economy that fueled an era of rich artistic development and cultural exchange. Fashioning an Empire captures this moment in time, showcasing masterpieces from the period complemented by manuscript illustrations and portraits depicting how the silk fabrics were worn by the elite of Iranian society.
