Byzantine Art & Architecture

Byzantine Art and Architecture. Thursday, July 17, 2008. Reflections and new Byzantium Perceptions. The iconoclasm controversy was actually a very interesting topic because I was aware prior to this class that the followers of Islam were iconoclasts and at the fall of the Eastern Empire many religious images were either destroyed or covered with plaster. It just seems amazing that during the middle of the Byzantine era, where icons were aplenty in every structure, they became an issue of debate. It is ha...

Byzantine Art & Architecture: Iconoclasm Confusion

http://www.sailing-to-byzantium-2008-01.blogspot.com/2008/07/evidence-of-destruction-of-iconic.html

Byzantine Art and Architecture. Monday, July 7, 2008. The locations of Christian imagery often appear as only shadows of their former glory among the walls of the Hagia Sophia. I found a few silhouettes (that were nearly upsetting) up in the gallery where it was evident that the walls were lined with the Eastern Orthodox cross figurines. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

Byzantine Art & Architecture: Byzantium Influence in the Hamam

http://www.sailing-to-byzantium-2008-01.blogspot.com/2008/07/byzantium-influence-in-hamam.html

Byzantine Art and Architecture. Thursday, July 17, 2008. Byzantium Influence in the Hamam. The Turkish bath, or more properly called the hamam, has been an essence of Turkish culture and a focal point for tourists on vacation. Though most of the still-existing hamams were built well after the end of the Byzantine Empire they derived much of their architectural design from the Byzantines with a mixture from the Ottomans.

Byzantine Art & Architecture: Mosaics of the Chrysoticlinium

http://www.sailing-to-byzantium-2008-01.blogspot.com/2008/07/mosaics-of-chrysoticlinium.html

Byzantine Art and Architecture. Thursday, July 17, 2008. Mosaics of the Chrysoticlinium. It is hard to determine my favorite mosaic because the use of colors and shadowing made nearly every image stand out and seem epic. My first picture is of a much deteriorated image of a lion attacking its prey. So much of this mosaic is lost that we only see the shadows in the muscles of the lion and the blood flowing from the victim so that a lot of this image is left to our imagination. Searching for the Hippodrome.

Byzantine Art & Architecture: June 2008

http://www.sailing-to-byzantium-2008-01.blogspot.com/2008_06_01_archive.html

Byzantine Art and Architecture. Sunday, June 29, 2008. Destruction of the Walls of Constantinople. This photo is probably one of the best views of the Byzantine walls of old Constantinople in the Edirnekapi district in Istanbul, Turkey. This wall was built in the fourth century AD during the rise of the Constantinople as the "New Rome" in the Eastern Roman Empire. Though it is extravagant, much of the wall in this area has been either vandalized or neglected when it comes to preservation and care.

Sailing to Byzantium: William Butler Yeats

Sailing to Byzantium" provides a gateway to a series of blogs created by undergraduate students visiting Istanbul, Turkey, as part of the Kentucky Institute for International Studies (KIIS). Program from June 20th-July 24th, 2008. These students, enrolled in a course entitled Byzantine Art and Architecture (ART 390/HIS 390), were tasked with sharing their observations of and reactions to the many Byzantine ruins found throughout Istanbul (the former Byzantine capital of Constantinople).

Sailing in the seas. In 2015 we sailed from Ipswich (England) to Helgoland - Cuxhaven - Kielcanal and Laboe. Our ship was an Oyster 56. It was a great experience, which you can watch here in german. In May 2014 we were sailing in Croatia for the first time, where I tested a Jeannaeu 53. Our tour started from Marina Castela near Split and brought us to the Kornates. You can follow the trip on the logbook in german language. Or at the english sites. To the english site. Subscribe to RSS feed.

Reflections on Byzantine Art and Architecture

Reflections on Byzantine Art and Architecture. Friday, July 18, 2008. Wandering the Grand Bazaar. So when I thought of the Grand Bazaar, I had visions of the Disney movie Aladdin. I envisioned, wrongly, people plying their wares like individual infomercials calling out features of their products in five languages and so on. Well, I was partially correct, but mainly wrong. . That I went to the flea markets in. In preparation for coming to the Bazaar, and they laughed. While hard bargaining is not my forte...

Thoughts on Byzantine Istanbul

Thoughts on Byzantine Istanbul. Thursday, July 17, 2008. The answer is “yes, anytime.”. Sunday, July 13, 2008. The Mosaic Museum of the Great Palace. They were outdoor mosaics, and each one was a floor mosaic that was meant to be walked on. It is hard to imagine that people once walked on these beautiful and intricate pieces of art. Although this was how the pieces were meant to be enjoyed, in its present museum presentation visitors have to walk along a platform above the mosaics. The City of Istanbul.

Istanbul's Byzantine Legacy

Friday, July 18, 2008. End of an Era. Prior to coming to Istanbul, I only had a vague idea of what the term Byzantine meant. It seemed to conjure images of a far away ancient place very different from my own home. The term Byzantine was often used to describe things such as the US government, which is highly complex and confusing. Really, the only time I had really heard the term Byzantine was in the poem "Sailing to Byzantium.". Thursday, July 17, 2008. Yedikule Fortress and the Byzantine Walls. The emp...

Zachary Conquers The City. I have sailed the seas and come To the holy city of Byzantium. Thursday, July 17, 2008. Byzantium, I hardly knew ye! I think the thing I never grasped before coming to Istanbul was the extent to which you have to understand Constantinople to be able to understand Byzantium. One example of that propaganda being played out in the city is the above image of Emperor Constantine (IX) Monomachos, the Christ, and Empress Zoe. It's a bold statement about the position of the Emperor...
