Abstract

Seyahatnameler, toplumların farklı medeniyetlere karşı duydukları merakı gidererek kaleme alındıkları ülkelerin mimari yapıları hakkında da birçok bilgiye yer vermektedirler. İstanbul, mimari ya da coğrafi açıdan her dönemde gezginlerin ilgisini çeken kozmopolit bir kent olmuştur. Farklı nedenlerle İstanbul’a gelen gezginler kaleme aldıkları gezi notlarında birçok mimari yapıyı betimleyerek aktardıkları görülmektedir. Bu mimari yapıların başında kendi dinlerinden farklı bir ibadet merkezleri yani camiler gelmektedir. Gravürlerde aktarılan panaromik kent görünümlerinin birçoğunda camiler siluet şeklinde aktarılırken kent mimarisini aktaran gravürlerde ise kompozisyonun ana konusunu olarak aktarılmaktadır. Bu çalışmada farklı yüzyıllarda İstanbul’a gelen gezginlerin gezi notlarında camilerin nasıl yansıdığı ve gravürlerle aktardıkları tasvirleri incelenmiştir.

Istanbul Mosques on The Engravings in The Travelogues in The XVI and XIX Century

Abstract

Travelogues also contain much information about the architectural structures of the countries in which they were written by satisfying the curiosity of societies towards different civilizations. Istanbul is a cosmopolitan city that has attracted the attention of travelers at all times, architectural or geographical. Travelers who come to Istanbul for different reasons describe and convey many architectural structures in their travelogues. At the top of these architectural structures is a place of worship different from their religion, namely, mosques. In most of the city panoramas depicted in the engravings, mosques are silhouettes, while in the engravings depicting urban architecture, they are the central motif of the composition. This study examined how mosques are reflected in the travel records of travelers who came to Istanbul in different centuries and what representations they convey in the engravings.
