T O P I C     R E V I E W Maria Does anyone know where I can get some images of oriental (persian actually, but ottoman will do) palaces? Some blueprints would also be apreciated... Thanks Queuxgropius You could try these parts of the ArchNet site. http://archnet.org/library/places/places.jsp?country_code=ir&collection_type=historical and http://archnet.org/library/places/places.jsp?country_code=tr&collection_type=historical You can also view the information on these lists by building type, usage and style. [This message has been edited by Queuxgropius (edited 05-26-2008).] ipflo hi, what about the following sites (afraid I could not find better): http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Golestan_Palace http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Niavaran_Palace_Complex http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Category:Persian_gardens http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Category:Palaces_in_Iran http://www.golestanpalace.ir/En_Site/collections/album.htm http://www.iranchamber.com/art/kamalolmolk/images/naseredinshah_kamalolmolk.jpg ipflo Maria Thanks ipflo! just in case you were wondering why I needed them http://mariasurducan-diploma.blogspot.com/ - leider, it's in Romanian, but as soon as I finish university I'll make an English version... The works are all mine, and they sort of represent my last exam (thesis, or bachlor degree, not sure how it's called)- illustrations for Appointment in Samarkand. Queuxgropius If you are including ancient Sassanian palaces look up Bishapur, Firuzbad and takht-i Soleiman. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bishapur http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Firuzabad and http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Takht-i-Suleiman Also http://www.livius.org/a/iran/firuzabad/firuzabad1.html although all these are very ruinous. For the Savafid complexes in Isfahan try here http://archnet.org/library/sites/one-site.jsp?site_id=3940 http://archnet.org/library/sites/one-site.jsp?site_id=3939 and http://archnet.org/library/sites/one-site.jsp?site_id=216 [This message has been edited by Queuxgropius (edited 06-04-2008).]
