The Tekkieh Moaven is a significant religious monument in
Kermanshah and one of the most important national memorials in
Iran. Following the building's destruction in the early 20th
century, it was rebuilt and furnished with exclusive tiles, the
focal point of this publication. Since 1975, it has also been a
popular museum visited by hundreds of thousands of people every
year. The tiles illustrate the fascinating world of art in the
Persian empire and Islamic era and are distinguished by colourful
illustrations featuring floral, calligraphic, and also figurative
motifs. Author Hadi Seif weaves the recollections of the ancient
guardian Sojdehpur into his narratives, contributing valuable
insights into the evolutionary history of these impressive tiles.
This is the first major English-language publication dedicated to
this outstanding cultural monument.
