Beskrivelse af Studies in Persian Architecture
Combines analyses of important monuments with overviews of key elements of Iranian architecture The volume, lavishly illustrated with many images previously unpublished in colour, presents articles by Bernard O'Kane on a wide variety of topics pertaining to Persian architecture in its widest sense. These range from historiography and tilework to studies of buildings of the major medieval dynasties: the Seljuqs, Ilkhanids and Timurids. In addition, formerly neglected monuments of the Chaghatai, Muzaffarid, Kartid and Jalayirid dynasties are given their due prominence, as well as Uzbek monuments in Afghanistan. And the development of Iranian mosques and one of their essential features, domes, is studied. Key Features Situates monuments within their social and political contexts Includes important buildings from previously little-studied periods. Covers the Greater Persian world, from the borders of Iraq to those of China Includes over 300 photographs, mostly in colour Bernard O'Kane is Professor of Islamic Art and Architecture at the American University in Cairo. He is the editor of three books and the author of eight, the most recent of which are Mosques: The 100 Most Iconic Islamic Houses of Worship (2019), The Mosques of Egypt (2016) and The Illustrated Guide to the Museum of Islamic Art in Cairo (2012).
