The first work to present the riches of all Persion architecture in a single volume, this important book is the result of a lifetime of study by a world recognized authority on Persian art and architecture. Over 400 illustration reveal the architectural genius of the Persian nation, from the noble Achaemenid structures of the 6th century B.C. to the refined Safavid mosques of the early 18th century. Most of the black and white illustrations come from the author's private archives and have never before been published. Of the 33 color plates, 32 are the harvest of two special expeditions carried on in Persian in 1964 and here reproduced for the first time.
