Description of Historical and Cultural Monuments of Nakhchivan in the Works of Foreign Artists of the 19 Century

Öz

The article examines and analyzes the images of Nakhchivan, an integral part of Azerbaijan, reflecting its ancient history and culture in the works of foreign artists of the XIX century. The engravings of artists from foreign countries such as W. Ouseley, D. Monpere, H. Klerget, Bocher, D. Lancelot, and Barbant reflect ancient traces of this history, taken from nature or from photographs during their travels to the historical places of Nakhchivan and the ancient region of Julfa. The engravings include “Nakhchivan ancient remains” by William Ouseley, “Tomb of Noah” and “Tomb of Momine-Khatun” by D. Monpere, “Nakhchivan. Tomb of Momine-Khatun” by Barbant, “Atabey kumbez in Nakhchivan,” “Ruined mosque in Nakhchivan” by H. Klerget, “The destroyed mosque in Nakhchivan” by D. Lancelot, “Carved figure of a ram” by Barbant, “General view of the necropolis of Julfa” by D. Lancelot, “The interior of the great Ordubad madrasah” by Gotorben, and “Temple of Malik Ibrahimoglu” by Bocher. These works provide graphic representations of the general appearance, historical monuments, and culture of Nakhchivan, Julfa, and Ordubad in the 19 century. The widespread use of this theme in the works of artists of the 19 century allows us to trace the history of this ancient culture in a rapidly changing, updating time. These works, depicted in a realistic style, are valuable for their artistic portrayal of the history and culture of Nakhchivan.
