A near-fine copy. Bourgoin was an architect who had published his major work 'Les Arts Arabes' in 1867, and later various theoretical works on ornament. This is the first book in the West to analyse in depth the structure of Islamic geometrical ornament. "Bourgoin was one of the most original thinkers to have directed his attentions to the subject of ornament. His approach is dispassionate and, in this respect, is in contrast to several more recent works which are all too inclined to attribute mystical significance to Islamic decoration".
