AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Sinan’s Art and Selimiye - Doğan Kuban
A major scholarly work on the architectural masterpiece of Mimar Sinan by one of Turkey’s foremost architectural historians.
Doğan Kuban examines the Selimiye Mosque in Edirne — the building Sinan himself regarded as his greatest achievement — within the broader context of Ottoman-Turkish culture and the long architectural traditions of the Mediterranean and Islamic worlds. The book explores the cultural, social and artistic forces that shaped Sinan’s work, comparing his approach with both Eastern and Western architectural traditions and analysing the unique synthesis achieved in Selimiye.
Richly illustrated with architectural drawings, plans, sections and photographs, this is an essential reference for anyone interested in Ottoman architecture, Islamic art, or the history of architecture in general.
