Hardcover. Condition: New. CIMOK, FATIH The book of Rustem Pasa tiles. Istanbul: A Turizm Yayinlari, 2010. 6th ed., oblong large 8vo., 64 p., 60 color ills. Original binding. Dust wrapper. New ISBN: 9789757528814 CATALOG: Turkish & Islamic arts KEYWORDS: Tile Istanbul - Constantinople Ceramics Ottoman art Ottoman architecture Iznik tile This small mosque, which was completed in 1561 for Rustem Pasa, a grand vizier of Suleyman the Magnificent, houses one of the richest collection of underglaze polychrome Iznik tile revetments in Istanbul. The revetment tiles in the Mosque of Rustem Pasa are generally acknowledged as an outstanding example of the unique richness and superb artistic achievement characteristic of the era of Suleyman the Magnificent. Representing an ostentatious culmination of centuries of evolution in the art of ceramics and tiles, the Rustem Pasa tile revetments also reflect the perfection of ceramic art at a particular stage of its development. Their lavish employment in this monument may show that Sinan, Sultan Suleyman's chief architect who built the mosque, had not yet decided how to use this new medium in architecture. In his other monuments, he appeared to use underglaze polychrome tiles more economically. The unusual number of motifs encountered in the mosque also points out that neither the decorators nor the architect had decided what designs to favor. Seller Inventory # 5448
