In the Garden of Isfahan : Islamic Architecture from the 16th to the 18th Century Hardback
by Werner Blaser
Hardback
Description
Isfahan is a heavenly city of gardens, mosques and palaces for an open-minded architect.
In addition to the artful dome constructions over the prayer halls of the larger mosques, the highpoint of Persian architecture is the multitude of garden complexes, staged as a mirror image of the cosmos or Paradise.
With their aromatic shrubberies and trees the galleries of pillars are typical for these geometrically laid out Islamic gardens in which nature becomes a work of art.
