My stroke was a bit broad, wasn't it. I must concede the point regarding the influence of post-Ghazali Islamic art.
I do not pretend to know what post-Ghazali Islamic art, is, but yes your line was a bit broad. However the rarity of a poster admitting to too broad a stroke, places you in a rare elite, More power to your elbow, you a a fine example to us all.
Actually I was pointing to the invention of perspective by Islamic mathematicians, and Islamic maths in general, there is also that without Islamic scholars we would know so little about the Greeks, In fact a lot of things that we think of a western have their roots in Islam, and at the other end of the world Chinese pottery as we know it would be almost nothing without the Islamic potters who settled in china.
