📐✨ Free Fridays with Getty Publications ✨📐 Unlock the beauty of Islamic architectural design—for free—with this week’s featured title from the Getty Virtual Library! 📖 "The Topkapi Scroll: Geometry and Ornament in Islamic Architecture" By Gülru Necipoğlu A rare and extraordinary window into the architectural imagination of the premodern Islamic world, the Topkapi Scroll is a treasure trove of geometric brilliance. Dating from the late 15th or early 16th century, this Timurid scroll—preserved in the Topkapi Palace Museum Library—contains 114 intricate geometric patterns used in wall surfaces and vaulting. In this groundbreaking study, Gülru Necipoğlu explores how architectural knowledge was conceptualized, recorded, and transmitted across centuries. Her analysis bridges Islamic and Western traditions of geometry, offering fresh insights into abstraction, vision, and design. The book also includes a technical essay by Mohammad al-Asad, who uses CAD drawings to demonstrate how one of the scroll’s patterns could be transformed into a three-dimensional muqarnas vault. 🌀 Fully illustrated in color and elegantly presented, this volume is a must-read for anyone passionate about architecture, geometry, or Islamic art. 📚 Access it now—free every Friday—via the Getty Virtual Library: gty.art/46L0zGP #GettyPublications #FreeFridays #IslamicArt #ArchitecturalHistory #TopkapiScroll #GeometryInArt #Muqarnas #VirtualLibrary #ArtHistory
