Sinan Diaryz: A Walking Tour of Mimar Sinan's Monuments

 

Ann Pierpont became fascinated by the works of Mimar Sinan, one of the greatest architects of the Ottoman Empire, and set out on a journey to learn more about his design sensibilities and the world in which he lived and worked. Surprised by the lack of a practical guide introducing the master's architectural legacy to the public, Pierpont undertook the project herself and created a walking guide to Sinan's monuments in Istanbul and beyond.

Written in the form of Sinan's diary, the book adopts the master's perspective, allowing readers to explore the details of his professional life, the challenges he faced, and the reasoning behind his architectural choices. Detailed explanations accompanying the diary entries shed light on Sinan's innovations and the distinctive features of his monuments.

This guide is an essential resource for newcomers to Mimar Sinan's work, architecture students, scholars, and anyone interested in discovering the life and lesser-known structures of the master architect.
