Abstract

The advent of Salah Al-Din Ayoubi, in the second half of the twelfth century/VI, relieved partly the political turmoil governing the Mediterranean Eastern lands during the eleventh century/V, till the early thirteenth / VII and often intensified with the Crusades’ attacks. Ayoubian were efficient and effective not only in conquests and war achievements but also in cultural services. They opened new ways towards the world of art; however, the period of their soverignety did not last long; and their significance was mostly due to their role in establishing a bond between the Seljuk and Mamluk eras and their distinctive manners of style. In this regard, due to the incoordination between art and politics in this period, no solitary style of PAINTING was shaped. The illustrated manuscripts remaining from AYOUBIAN ERA include an edition of "KalilahwaDimnah"; or (The fables of Bidpai), MAQAMAT AL-HARIRI and the book entitled: Mokhtar Al-Hikamand Mahasen Al-kalam. Getting accustomed with the features of PAINTINGs & recognizing the subject matter of illustrated manuscripts in AYOUBIAN ERA, are the main purposes of this essay.The analysis of the three manuscripts of this book reveals that in all works the images are located in the middle of the page amidst Arabic texts. In a number of the PAINTINGs, liveliness and vivacity can be traced among the elements of the visual; however, the overall atmospheres of the PAINTINGs are still and motionless. The trees and the plants have mysterious leaves and flowers; nonetheless, they bear simple desgins and can be traced back to the local vegetation of the area. The last feature applied is the use of symbolism depicting local features including the date palm a symbol of fertility, a torn bush a symbol of sadness and melancholy, a seagull symbolizing water and the nightingale symbolizing open meadows.
