Interesting art history lesson that I hadn’t considered before.

Along with banning images of the prophet, Islam bans or at least discourages images of humans or animals. Fine architecture, decorative work, tiles and such, calligraphy. Paintings often concentrating on buildings. Interestingly not much religious art for an expansive religion. In the modern day, t shirts too.
