Description: GEORGIA ( Tbilisi ) And IRAN by Hossein Manoochehri Estimated delivery 3-12 business days Format Paperback Condition Brand New Description Architectural features, such as the forms, designs, and decorations of buildings, are major attractions for allpeople around world. Although a few thousand years ago, very few individuals were able to travel to othernations, at the present a majority of populations are able to travel to other countries to get knowledge aboutother cultures, other peoples, and other architectural features. Today, millions of people travel to othercountries just to see how peoples, foods, living environments, and forms and designs of buildings in othercountries look like. The present series is a contribution to make available for all people around the world to see in picturesthe architectural features (i. e., forms, designs, decorations of buildings) in selected countries. It is acomparative, pictorial introduction of architectural features in six selected countries to show the talents, skills, and masterships of builders in creation of architectural forms and designs in the selected countries. More specifically, there are two main architectural styles in Europe (--as well as in mountainous countriessuch as Armenia and Georgia, ) and in Iran. While a stone architecture is common in Europe and in themountainous countries, a clay architecture is used in Iran. A comparative display of the two styles, thestone vs. clay architecture, therefore, is the main theme of the series titled: A Comparative Display Of ArtAnd Architecture. The second volume of this series is about architectural styles in Georgia (Tbilisi) and Iran. Using a functional-equivalency approach, the series focuses on architectural features from Europe andmountainous countries and Iran that, while structurally are different, functionally are similar or have similaritywith each other. For example, both a church and a mosque are religious buildings with similar functions butwith different structures. Although there are numerous published books about art and architecture in Europeor in Iran separately, but none makes a comparative introduction using a functional- equivalency approach. The present series, therefore, should be regarded as the first original work that seeks to present a comparative, pictorial introduction of two different architectural styles, stone vs. clay architectural styles, by displaying theirmain features side by side. For example, the illustrations are grouped into several categories (Introduction)[ i. e, 1) Historic or Heritage Buildings; 2) Stone (Khachkar) vs. Brick or Tile decorations; and 3) ReligiousBuildings: Churches vs. Jama mosques]. (Otherwise, assuming that the images collected and presented inthis volume are also presented randomly in some other books about art and architecture in Armenia or in Iran, an estimated 50 to 100 books on the subjects of art and architecture in either Georgia or Iran should bebrowsed over, here or there, to find similar images collected in this volume.) Volume II of this series compares architectural features in Georgia (a country in the Caucasian region) to similar, clay architectural features in historic cities of Iran. The work is expected to make availablefor the readers a quick and an easy comparative views of the architectural forms and designs fromGeorgia ( Tbilisi ) as compared to their similar, clay architectural features in historic cities of Iran.
