The lecture will focus on the external architecture of these two cities developed from sun dried brick buildings to the fantastic tile work which we see on the outside and inside of these building. Why were they built, who built them and why have they survived to this day. Why do art historians use the term "Timurid" or "Eastern Islamic art & architecture"?

It was here that she "discovered" the Silk Road and made many journeys into China which complimented her travels & studies in the Middle East, India and Iran. She is now an Independent Researcher in the Asia Department of the British Museum with a special emphasis on Silk Road trade. She covers 3,000 years of history & almost 7000 miles of trade from Morocco to China.
