The Fatimids is the subject of a new exhibition that recently opened at the Aga Khan Museum in Toronto, Canada. Titled the World of Fatimids, the exhibition tells the story of Egypt’s 12th-century Fatimid dynasty, which was said to have established one of the greatest civilisations in the world that spanned a large area in North Africa and the Mediterranean coast. The exhibition features 87 items, carefully selected masterpieces, ranging from ivory to ceramic lustre-ware as well marble reliefs.
