EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the description of the astronomical observatory built by Arab scientist Taqi al-Din in Istanbul during the 16th century. The image, taken from a manuscript miniature called "Sehinsahname" depicts astronomers diligently working with various instruments in this remarkable scientific establishment. The observatory, constructed under the reign of Murad III in 1577, stands as a testament to the intersection of science and Islam during this period. Taqi al-Din's innovative contributions to astronomy and his commitment to advancing knowledge are evident through this magnificent creation. The manuscript itself is an epic poem titled "The Story of the King of Kings" written by Persian poet Ala ad-din Mansur-Shirazi. Its inclusion within this artwork adds another layer of cultural richness and historical significance. Preserved within Istanbul University Library, this photograph not only captures a moment frozen in time but also serves as a reminder of humanity's enduring curiosity about our place in the universe. It symbolizes how different cultures have contributed to scientific progress throughout history. Luisa Ricciarini skillfully captures both the beauty and importance of this piece, allowing viewers to appreciate its intricate details while contemplating its broader implications for science, religion, and cultural exchange.
