The Architecture of the Kariye Camii in Istanbul

Professor Department of the History of Art and Director of the Center for Ancient Studies Robert G Ousterhout, Robert G. Ousterhout — 1987
The Kariye Camii remains one of the most important and best-known monuments of the Byzantine world. Rebuilt and decorated in the early 14th century by statesman-scholar Theodore Metochites, the monument played a key role in the development of Late Byzantine art. Ousterhout presents a structural history and architectural analysis of this building.
