The Stucco and Tile mihrabs of Greater Iran (12th to 14th Centuries)

该项目将研究塞尔柱和伊尔汗王朝时期在伊朗和邻近地区生产的各种灰泥和瓷砖米赫拉布。该研究将结合风格、艺术技巧、制作技术、多色和设计原则的研究。它将为了解工匠的身份、职业和流动性提供重要的见解。对生产方法的知识、早期风格的复制实践、车间的分布以及它们如何通过工匠的流动在更广泛的地区迁移的更清晰的理解将会出现。

This project will examine a wide range of stucco and tile mihrabs, produced in Iran and neighboring territories during the Seljuq and Ilkhanid periods. The research will draw on a combination of studies of styles, artistic techniques, production technology, polychromy, and design principles. It will provide important insights into the identity, profession, and mobility of the artisans. A clearer understanding of the knowledge of production methods, copying practices of earlier styles, distribution of workshops, and how they migrated across the wider region via the mobility of craftsmen will emerge.
