In this research, it is intended to find answers in connection with the layout feature of the opening pages in the Qurans that have been preserved in Astan Quds Razavi from the 6th to the 9th century AH and also the similarities and differences existing in the layout of the mentioned Qurans. Thus, in the above-mentioned Qurans, after the introduction, the opening page of the Qurans was examined, analyzed and discussed in terms of layout and decorations and notable results were obtained in this regard. It should be stated that the current study has been conducted by using a qualitative approach in which a historical, descriptive and analytical research method has been employed. Further, this research has been classified and then analyzed while having targeted statistical population and sequential sampling in the direction of maximum differences and similarities. Based on the findings obtained from the present research, it has been demonstrated that the layout of the Qurans’ opening pages has had an evolutionary movement from the 6th to the 9th century AH. In the Seljuk period, we observe that scribing and calligraphy have had significant growth and the sextet hands were also regulated and systematized. Moreover, during this era, skilled well-known scribes wrote the words of Allah on the surface of the paper. In the mentioned period, Kufic and Riqa’ scripts were applied more than any other scripts in the writing of the Quran. In the decoration of the Qurans, geometric forms consisting of regular polygons, circles and arabesques limited to twisted lines and limited simple bergamots and colors such as brown, vermilion, black and especially golden color were used. In layout proportions, the priority was the blank space and the artist paid special attention to this issue. It should be also noted that the greatest surface, in most cases, has been dedicated to the central inscription and the upper and lower inscriptions in some Qurans did not have equal proportions. From the first periods, the artists were familiar with the ruler and cleverly took into consideration the lineation and line space. These artists even accurately placed the sign of verses over the last verse, which also continued in later periods. In the Ilkhanid period, it can be seen that composition and layout became more consistent and more orderly and the layout principles were more closely respected and the blank space was reduced in this era. The use of golden and azure colors, along with colors used in the previous periods, became widespread. Geometric forms kept their place alongside some naturalistic elements such as arabesque foliage and colorful Khataei designs in the page. Motifs of flowers and cloud-shape margins and hachures and sometimes arabesques in this period, along with verses, featured in the central inscription. Scribed Qurans in the Timurid era were principled and systematic in terms of structure and using naturalistic elements and elegant designs. The maximum use of the blank space of the margin by wide lassos with azure rays of light in the opening pages attracts the attention of the viewer. In addition, dynamic proportions were found more than the static proportions in the aforesaid Qurans. The application of golden, azure and vermilion colors, along with other various colors, was among the main characteristics of decorations in this period. Also, in proportions of the components, the greatest part has been allocated to the epigraph after the lasso and the central inscription, and the smallest part has been dedicated to the lower inscriptions. Verses have been also written on the inscriptions with Sols, Riqa’ and Reyhan scripts. Finally, it can be mentioned that since the beginning page of the Divine Word has been considered as the most important part in the writing of Qurans, it has also been of crucial importance in terms of layout, proportions and illumination in the page. Therefore, the art of scribing, from the 6th to the 9th century AH, has advanced from a simple and unadorned form towards integrated and elaborate designs, and decorations in Qurans have been also considered as an aesthetic element in layout. Further, the composition of proportions and division of the components were based on a certain order. Hence, geometrical structure, proportion and balance are of great importance in the layout of the Qurans under study and the scribe has observed these principles based on the science, technology and art which have been popular in his own time and thus has created beautiful and unmatched compositions.}, keywords = {Quran,Layout,Opening Page,Astan Quds Razavi,Seljuk,Ilkhanid,Timurid}, title_fa = {مطالعه اصول صفحه‌آرایی صفحه‌های افتتاح قرآن‌های آستان قدس رضوی سده 6 تا 9 ه. ق}, abstract_fa = {پژوهش حاضر، در کنار ارزش نسخه‌شناسی قرآن، به مطالعه بصری صفحات افتتاح مجموعه‌ای از قرآن‌های محفوظ در آستان قدس رضوی از سده‌ 6 تا 9 هجری با هدف تأکید بر صفحه آرایی،تناسبات، تزئینات و تذهیب پرداخته است. لذا به این پرسش می‌پردازد که ویژگی صفحه‌آرایی صفحات افتتاح در قرآن‌های محفوظ در آستان قدس رضوی از قرن 6 تا 9 هجری و دوم وجوه افتراق و اشتراک در صفحه‌آرایی قرآن‌ها چیست؟ بنابراین در قرآن‌های مذکور بعد از معرفی، صفحه افتتاح قرآن‌ها از دیدگاه صفحه‌آرایی وتزئینات مورد بحث و تفسیر قرار گرفت. این پژوهش با رویکرد کیفی و روش تحقیق تاریخی،توصیفی به انجام رسیده و با جامعه آماری هدفمند و نمونه‌گیری متوالی در جهت حداکثر تفاوت و تشابه طبقه‌بندی و سپس تجزیه و تحلیل شده است. نتایج یافته‌های پژوهش نشان داد که صفحه‌آرایی صفحات افتتاح قرآن‌ها از سده‌ 6 تا 9 هجری سیر تکاملی را پیموده است. در دوره سلجوقی خط و خوشنویسی رشد قابل توجهی داشته و خطوط سته به نظم و قاعده درآمدند، در تزئینات قرآن‌ها از فرم‌های هندسی، اسلیمی‌های ساده و رنگ‌های محدود و علی الخصوص زرین استفاده شد، در عصر ایلخانی ترکیب‌بندی و صفحه‌آرایی منسجم تر و منظم تر گشت استفاده از رنگ‌های زرین و لاجوردی مرسوم شد، فرم‌های هندسی جایگاه خود را در کنار برخی عناصر طبیعت گرا حفظ کردند. قرآن‌های کتابت‌شده عصر تیموری به لحاظ ساختاری، استفاده از عناصر طبیعت‌گرا و ظرافت نقوش اصولی و قاعده‌مند بودند و کاربرد رنگ‌های زرین، لاجوردی و شنجرف در کنار رنگ‌های متنوع دیگر از خصوصیات شاخص در تزئینات این دوره بوده است. در نهایت می‌توان عنوان کرد که هنر کتابت از شکل ساده و بی پیرایه به سوی انسجام و پر نقش و نگاری پیش‌رفته و تزئینات نیز در قرآن‌ها به‌عنوان عنصری زیباشناسانه در صفحه‌آرایی محسوب شد و ترکیب‌بندی تناسبات و تقسیمات اجزاء براساس نظمی خاص بوده است. لذا ساختار هندسی، تناسب و توازن در صفحه‌آرایی قرآن‌‌های مورد مطالعه اهمیت داشته و کاتب این اصول را براساس علوم، فنون و هنر رایج زمان خود رعایت و در نتیجه ترکیب‌بندی‌های زیبا و بی‌بدیلی خلق کرده‌ است.}, keywords_fa = {واژگان کلیدی:قرآن کریم,صفحه‌آرایی,صفحه افتتاح,آستان قدس رضوی,سلجوقی,ایلخانی,تیموری}, url = {https://negareh.shahed.ac.ir/article_600.html}, eprint = {https://negareh.shahed.ac.ir/article_600_f16d46bc3c6163523e894764edcf136b.pdf} } @article { author = {R, Ebrahim and Pakbaz Kataj, Davood}, title = {Exploring the Designs of the Seljuk and Ilkhanid Luster Ceramics and Metal Containers and Reflecting the Social Life of That Era}, journal = {Negareh Journal}, volume = {13}, number = {47}, pages = {28-45}, year = {2018}, publisher = {Shahed University}, issn = {2676-7244}, eissn = {2676-7244}, doi = {10.22070/negareh.2018.2558.1685}, abstract = {In the mid-Islamic centuries that culminated in the advancement of arts, pottery also moved into other artistic arenas, as a basis for artistic revitalization, to compete with the industry of making vessels of gold and silver, and the potters of this period from clay, designs and glaze were produced Luxurious containers.

The two art forms have been shaped almost at the same historic era. Therefore, they have been frequently used together. Accordingly, addressing this issue in the present study is of paramount importance. The present study is aimed at identifying the exact form of Nasta'līq and Tash'ir in Iranian book illustration from Timurid period to Qajar period. In the matter of this issue, the present research study is sought to answer the following research questions: 1. What factors have led to the formation of Nasta'līq and Tash'ir in Iranian book illustration from Timurid period to Qajar period? 2. According to the formalist approach what similarities and differences are found in Nasta'līq and Tash'ir? The answers to these questions have been reached through a descriptive-analytical method with a view to the theory of formalism. Data is collected using library sources. In summary, the results of this study show that the inclusion of these two arts after interregnum led to the display of the Timurid external decorations to show their assets. Cumulating wealth in his territory, Timur contributed to the growth of the art of book decoration during his successors' period, so that the Timurid kings paid more attention to the appearance than to the content of the manuscripts, and constantly produced a variety of copies of a book. This is also evident in the architecture of that period. Therefore, the decorative margins and the delicate texts of Nasta'līq, which were used for the beauty of the manuscripts, were directly associated to the display of the immense wealth of the Timurid. Another point that led to the emergence of these two arts in the art of book decoration was the combination of the art of the past, that is, as Nasta'līq was formed by the combination of Naskh and Taʿlīq, Tash'ir came from the combination of Persian miniature and illuminated manuscript. Therefore, dichotomy is a common point between them; in addition, other commonalities such as the strength and weakness of the lines, the dispersion of patterns and letters, the selection of color of Tash'ir and the Nasta'līq, having certain rules in measuring the size of patterns and letters, all served the coordination and unity of the manuscripts. The increasing application of Nasta'līq and Tash'ir together during the Safavid period reached its peak, and the common external features among them in Muraqqa reached a stable equilibrium. In fact, if Muraqqas were not prevalent, Tash'ir would not have flourished to such an extent. Moreover, the decorative potential of Tash'ir also appeared in Nasta'līq vocabulary, indicating their impact on each other and causing a further similarity between them. From the Qajar period, a new form of art was created separately for the purpose of Nasta'līq calligraphy, which was called Siyah mashq. Calligraphy that always had narrative was then free of narrative, and letters and words had only decorative aspect. The placement of different layers of gray produced from compound concentrations of ink, made a variety of decorative compounds. In addition to the above mentioned commonalities, one of the main differences between them is Nasta'līq's regularity compared to the free exercise of Tash'ir. The exercise of Tash'ir is done by paintbrush, causing irregular movement of Tash'ir designs throughout the whole margins of the manuscripts, while Nasta'līq letters are exercised using reed pen to be written on a given line. Failure to observe this rule causes the apparent coherence of the text to be eliminated. Another distinction is the priority of narrative aspect in Nasta'līq, compared to the decorative aspect of Tash'ir. In the qualitative system of book decoration, there is a hierarchy in which the text has a priority and the decorations are in the next levels. Nasta'līq's position in the main page and Tash'ir's at the margins, indicate degrees of the book decoration. On the other hand, there is another difference in their position. Tash'ir ornaments should not be entered into the text frame on the page, because they make it difficult to understand the text and create a disorder on the page, but the text frames can break the rectangular shape of the margin and enter it. These points have been studied over the course of different studies.}, keywords = {Nasta'līq,Tash'ir,Formalism,Iranian Book Illustration}, title_fa = {خوانش صورتگرایانه عناصر نستعلیق و تشعیر در کتاب‌آرایی دوران تیموری تا قاجار}, abstract_fa = {نستعلیق و تشعیر دو عنصر هم‌نشین در کتاب‌آرایی محسوب می‌شوند. شروع تقریبی این دو هنر در یک برهۀ تاریخی و کاربرد مکرر آن‌ها در کنار یکدیگر از عواملی است که پرداختن به این موضوع را ضروری می‌نماید. هدف این تحقیق شناسایی دقیق فرم نستعلیق و تشعیر در کتاب‌آرایی ایرانی در فاصلۀ زمانی دورۀ تیموری تا قاجار است. پرسش‌های این مقاله عبارت‌اند از: 1- چه عواملی سبب شکل‌گیری فرم نستعلیق و تشعیر در کتاب‌آرایی ایرانی شده است؟ 2- بر اساس رویکرد صورت‌گرایی نقاط اشتراک و افتراق میان نستعلیق و تشعیر چیست؟ برای رسیدن به پاسخ این پرسش‌ها از روش توصیفی-تحلیلی و با رویکردی به نظریه صورت‌گرایی این تحقیق بررسی شده است. شیوه جمع‌آوری اطلاعات کتابخانه‌ای است. به طور خلاصه نتایج حاصل از این پژوهش نشان می‌دهد الحاق این دو هنر به یکدیگر پس از دوران فترت، سبب نمایش ظواهر تزیینی تیموریان در جهت نمود سرمایه شده و ناشی از ادراک زیباشناسانه حاکمان آن‌هاست. کاربرد بیش از پیش نستعلیق و تشعیر کنار یکدیگر در دوره صفویه به اوج می‌رسد و خصوصیات صوری مشترک میان آن‌ها در مرقعات به تعادلی پایدار تبدیل می‌شود. همچنین قابلیت تزیینی تشعیر و واژگان نستعلیق در قالب سیاه‌مشق که از دوره قاجار به صورت مجزا شکل می‌گیرد از دیگر تشابهات میان آن‌هاست. تمایزاتی از قبیل قاعده‌مند بودن نستعلیق در برابر تشعیر و اولویت داشتن وجه روایی نستعلیق دربرابر وجه تزیینی تشعیر در طول ادوار مورد مطالعه همواره مورد توجه بوده است.}, keywords_fa = {نستعلیق,تشعیر,صورت‌گرایی,کتاب‌آرایی ایرانی}, url = {https://negareh.shahed.ac.ir/article_650.html}, eprint = {https://negareh.shahed.ac.ir/article_650_9b0e506a310e2810bbe8bc83f6ce6226.pdf} } @article { author = {Kheirollahi Aznavle, Mozhgan and Bani Ardalan, Esmael}, title = {Explaining the Botteh Motif's Characteristics Considering the Views and Opinions of the Scholars about Its Origin in Islamic Art and a Critique of the Cypress Tree View as the Origin of This Motif}, journal = {Negareh Journal}, volume = {13}, number = {47}, pages = {62-81}, year = {2018}, publisher = {Shahed University}, issn = {2676-7244}, eissn = {2676-7244}, doi = {10.22070/negareh.2018.2822.1767}, abstract = {Botteh motif or Paisley Pattern is of great status in the Islamic art. This motif in a variety of different types is used in Islamic artworks such as textiles, carpets, stucco, etc. During recent centuries, the variety of this motif has persuaded scholars to do research on the origin of it.  None of these are comprehensive, and they cannot be attributed to all the motifs called Botteh; therefore, various new hypotheses have already been raised about the origins of this motif. They are always looking for the cause of this dispersion of opinions and trying to justify these various ideas. In this paper, by asking three questions, the quiddity of this motif and the cause of the dispersion of ideas about its origin are investigated. 1. What is the reason for the dispersion and incompleteness of the ideas about the origin of the Botteh motif? 2. If the reasons for the dispersion of ideas are motifs that are similar in appearance but have different meanings and origins, then what are the properties of a Botteh motif that distinguish it from other motifs? 3. What are the historical, cultural and artistic evidences that confirm the cypress tree as the origin of this motif? The main hypothesis of the paper is that a group of motifs with different origins is imagined alike due to similarity in form. Then all of them were named “Botteh” which is the most known motif among these types of motifs. The second hypothesis is as follows: The origin of the Botteh motif is a kind of conifer, but it cannot be a cypress. In order to answer the research questions and to test the validity of the hypotheses, firstly the most important opinions of the researchers of the field of Islamic art studies on Botteh motifs were briefly reviewed. And then they were classified in three groups of plants, animals, and other ideas to better enable us to analyze them.‏ In the following, the meaning of the name of this motif was studied in Lexicons. By comparison of the results of these two sections and image examples called Botteh, it is inferred that several types of motifs with various origins are imagined to be the same due to the similarity of the apparent form. In the second part, the idea of the cypress, as one of the most important opinions about the origin of the Botteh motif, is criticized. The most important outcome of this research is getting to the point that several types‏ of motifs with different origins are considered to be the same because of their evident formal similarities.‏ The second result of this research is suggestion of some distinctive properties for the Botteh motif. Some of them are as follows: The first property is the conical shape of the motif. The second property, according to the meaning of the name of this motif, is the separation of tree motifs from non-tree motifs; with the help of components and details such as stems, branches, trunks, etc. or other indications that allude to the motif of the tree. In this paper it is shown that there was no mention of the sanctity of the cypress in the old Zoroastrian scriptures until the eighteenth century. Ferdowsi's Shahnameh is the oldest book in which it was recorded. On the other hand, the precise examination of Persepolis petroglyphs shows that these trees are not of the Cupressaceae family, and it seems that they belonged to the Pinaceae family, such as the Pinus, Abies, etc.‏ The third point, according to Parham, is regarding religious rigors in drawing of the cypress tree. Among the artworks of the Islamic era in Iran, plant motifs and various trees, including cypress, have been replicated very often. Even since the third century AH, animal and human motifs have also been used in many examples of Islamic arts.

In this profession, objects’ surfaces are covered and decorated with the combination of wood, metal, bone and such materials based on geometric shapes. As it is known, geometric shapes are among the fundamental and common patterns in traditional arts. The use of such geometric shapes is similar and common in many related arts disciplines. However, Inlay is one of the few disciplines in which its patterns and details of the construction are inspired by geometric shapes.     Geometric shapes are technically called “Golbandi” in the art of inlay. For creating “Golbandi”, the materials are first cut off with proportional angles and edges, once the pieces are aligned next to each other according to the scheme, the so-called “khatampichi” or binding khatam begins. In general, inlay is divided into three general categories: “khatam Moraba” (Square inlay), “khatam Shesh” (Six inlay) and "khatam Gereh” (Knot inlay), which is based on difference in the cutting of primary materials in Golbandi. In fact, the cutting angles of inlay materials lead to the creation of sides with different cross-sectional area, and these three types of inlay distinguish in appearance. For instance, the cutting of materials in Square inlay is based on square and rectangle; in Six inlay, the cut is based on equilateral triangle and rhombus; in Knot inlay, it is based on isosceles triangle with (acute and obtuse angles) and pentagon geometric shapes.     The method of constructing Knot inlay is generally more complicated and difficult than the other types of inlay. The Knot inlay is usually formed on the basis of geometric designs (acute and obtuse angles), and the cutting angle of materials is also different. “Gereh Panj” is one of the most commonly used patterns, which is the basis for the formation of patterns in Knot inlay and is observed in almost all types of Knot inlay. Accordingly, the subject of this paper is dedicated to the study of “Golbandi” construction techniques in “Gereh Panj” inlay and seeks to answer three questions as follows: 1-      What are the general characteristics of a knot inlay, and what is its distinction from other types of inlay? 2-      What are the stages of designing and constructing of a “Gereh Panj” inlay? 3-      How does the color combination apply to the creation of a “Gereh Panj” inlay?     For this purpose, while considering the main characteristics of Knot inlay, the geometric drawing method, preparing materials, stages of “Golbandi” and “Khatampichi”, combining variation and coloring in the “Gereh Panj” inlay have been investigated. In the preparing materials section, the author describes the calculation methods of inlay materials. The main stages of the production of the “Gereh Panj” inlay are illustrated as specific linear drawings throughout the article. This paper is written using the descriptive-analytical method and relies on library studies and field research.      As mentioned above, Knot inlay is formed based on geometric shapes. However, the creation of “Golbandi” is different from drawing of the geometric shapes. In order to construct a “Gereh Panj” inlay, the following materials are required: one “Shamseye Panj”, five “Kardi” and five “Baghal Shesh”. All materials need to be rubbed and prepared before “Golbandi”. The most important part is the precise and accurate adjustment of the knot components in order to create a regular polygon knot.     Furthermore, the materials used in Knot inlay are different and have higher quality. On the other hand, the variation in the Knot inlay can be achieved by creating a variety of materials’ color scheme. Colors of inlay components affect final color of “Gholbandi”. The Knot inlay is made up of wood with natural colors and the phenomenon of wood staining, which is very common in the production of other types of inlay, is very rare. Layers applied around the sides of “Gereh Panj” or other components of Knot inlay are those that are commonly used in “Gholbandi” construction. Of course, in some cases, depending on the location of “Gereh Panj”, the layers may not be applied to all sides of a knot. As it is known, the use of layers is one of the characteristics of the Shiraz inlay.    The research results demonstrate that “Gereh Panj” is used in all kinds of Knot inlay.

School of Coffee House painting was formed and became widespread in the late 13th and early 14th century AD. A Coffee House painting was ordered for a variety of places, including a coffee house, a Husseinieh and etc. The theme of the Coffee House painting is wide-ranging; from religious to epic, romantic, and routine. One of the religious themes of this school of painting is depicted in Ashura paintings. Ashura Coffee House paintings, as a big part of the history of Persian painting and other religious paintings such as Christian religious paintings, are narrations and therefore depended on written and verbal text. Christian painting from the beginning and more since Christianity was declared the official religion in forms such as illustration of books, mural painting, typography, mosaic work, glass painting, portraiture iconography, tapestry scenes and painting on canvas narrates topics such as biblical narrations and anecdotes related to the Apostles and saints. Most of these paintings were created for the church or ordered by the same place. Gothic paintings and issues related to the life of Jesus Christ are part of Christian paintings which in this study will be discussed. Although Imam Hussein and Jesus are different in terms of the history of religion in the two missions of the Imam and the Prophet, they are similar in the works of painting in the periods discussed due to the orientation of these characters.These two types of painting, despite their formation in different times and places, have similar characteristics. As part of comparative studies emphasizes on similarities to study the relationship between texts, the purpose of this study is to show these similarities and in the next step to answer to the question that what causes the similarities? The results indicate that continuous composition techniques (continuous simultaneous and non-simultaneous) constitute the most important similarities between the two areas of painting and the repetition of the uniform visual patterns is another shared aspect in techniques of their visual expression. On the other hand, besides depending on linguistic narratives, the similarity of the attitudes of the creators of these paintings and their educational and religious use in relation to their audience, i.e. general public, are also among the factors that played a significant role in the aforementioned similarities. According to the research history, there are few examples of comparative and inter-cultural studies in the field of Coffee House painting. On the other hand, no article that has been written independently on the comparative study of Ashura in Coffee House painting and Gothic painting has been found. The present paper, with a periodic selection of the history of Western painting, and discovering of similarities and common grounds in creation and receiving of works with regard to Ashura in Coffee House painting and Gothic painting, aims to provide a fresh reader on how to narrate the images.

Apparent presence of decorations such as line drawings, vegetative and geometrical designs, composes the secondary nature of Islamic art. Stucco decorations are amongst the decorations of Islamic art and architecture; however this field of art enjoys a rich semantic content and has been used to transmit semantic-oriented messages apart from beauty. Shrine of Bayazid Bastami is one of the historical complexes of Shahroud city, constructed in pre-Seljuk eras and has been renovated and developed within various historical eras. Stucco decorations in Chelleh-Khaneh are composed of geometrical designs that cover the walls, arches and altar. The purpose of this study is to investigate and identify the geometrical designs and decorations of Bayazid Bastami Chelleh-Khaneh, and to answer to the question that what types of motifs and inscriptions are used in the stucco decorations of Chelleh-Khaneh? In what parts of the building and in what forms the semantic functions of these decorations have appeared? Finally, what types of motifs are used in Chelleh-Khaneh? In order to do so, first of all the decorations were photographed on site and then their linear designs were extracted from such photos and were discussed using a descriptive-analytical method. The studies of motifs indicated that mainly the knots have been used in Chelleh-Khaneh stucco designs to decorate and cover the internal area of arcades and walls of the building. The types of rhythms ruling this Chinese knot were predominant regular repetitive rhythms. In examining the designs in these Chinese knots, it is clearly evident that nodes 4, 6, 8 and 21 are most observed, which are based on pair numbers and are merged with vegetative elements (arabesque and khataei patterns) and/or exist simultaneously beside them. This is considered as one of the apparent features of geometrical decorations in stucco altars of the Ilkahnid era. The general motifs were placed in a circularly shaped area and the circular element was dominant. Design of the inscription in Chelleh-Khaneh is the result of combination of a variety of elements and middle decorative knots, words with decorative endings, stalks and vegetative decorations, and various minute decorations have been used in combination and connection to the same area. The Kufic and Thuluth scripts, in combination with the decorations, along with a variety of arabesque and geometrical designs, have given a special beauty to these plasterings. Nevertheless, in the semantic-oriented function of such designs and decorations it was found that there is a coherent relationship between beauty and form with mystical meanings and concepts in this building. In fact, the relationship between non-physical factors such as God's attributes and religious and mystical principles has been well established with physical factors such as form and geometry. The theme of the verses used in the Bayazid Bastami's Chelleh-Khaneh is divided into two categories of "Monotheism" and "Anthropology". The themes of all verses are positive and guiding, and none of them addresses the punishment. Therefore, the themes of the inscribed Qur'anic verses are in accordance with the altar, and the place of its implementation is in direction of faith, guidance and unity of the believers. The contents of the inscriptions of the Bayazid’s Chelleh-Khaneh have grand mystical basics. The most important forming sources of these basics in the first place are the verses of God in the Holy Qur'an, which is considered to be the most comprehensive program of salvation, and next, the hadith of the great Prophet of Islam (pbuh). Most of the verses and hadiths have certain meanings and interpretations. Arabesque patterns and sacred numbers and inscriptions used in this building are all intended to establish a semantic relationship between the physical and non-physical elements in order to create Islamic mystical concepts to provide the proper conditions for the seclusion seekers.}, keywords = {Decorations,Stucco,Semantic-oriented Function,Chelleh-Khaneh,Bayazid Bastami,Islamic Architecture}, title_fa = {شناسایی کارکردهای معناگرایانه تزئینات گچبری چله‌خانه خانقاه بایزید بسطامی}, abstract_fa = {در معماری اسلامی تزئین و آرایش بنا جزء لاینفک ساختمان محسوب می‌شود. حضور بارز آرایه‌هایی چون خط نگاره‌ها، نقوش گیاهی و طرح‌های هندسی، ماهیت فرعی هنر اسلامی را تشکیل می‌دهد. آرایه‌های گچی نیز از آذین‌های هنر و معماری اسلامی هستند اما  این هنر بار محتوایی بالایی داشته و علاوه بر زیبایی، جهت انتقال پیام‌های معناگرایانه کاربرد داشته‌اند. مقبره‌ بایزید بسطامی از مجموعه‌های تاریخی شهر شاهرود است که در دوران قبل از سلجوقی ساخته شده است و در دوره‌های مختلف تاریخی مرمت و گسترش شده است.  تزئینات گجبری چله‌خانه از طرح‌های هندسی تشکیل شده‌اند که دیوارها، طاقها و محراب را پوشش میدهند. هدف از این پژوهش مطالعه و شناسایی طرح‌های هندسی و تزیینات چله‌خانه بایزد بسطامی است و در پی پاسخ دهی به این سوال است که در تزئینات گچبری چله‌خانه از چه نوع نقوش و خط نوشته‌ها استفاده شده است؟ و همچنین کارکردهای معناشناسانه این تزیینات در چه بخشهایی از بنا و در چه انواعی ظاهر شده اند؟ و در نهایت انواع نقش مایه‌های به کار گرفته شده در چله‌خانه کدامند؟ بدین لحاظ پس از گردآوری اطلاعات به صورت میدانی و کتابخانه ای، داده‌های بدست آمده به روش توصیفی- تحلیلی مورد بحث قرار گرفته‌اند. مطالعه نقش‌مایه‌ها نشان داد که در گچبری‌های چله‌خانه گره‌ها برای تزئین و پوشاندن فضای داخلی طاقنما و دیوارهای بنا استفاده شده‌اند و گره‌ها با عناصر گیاهی(اسلیمی و ختایی) تلفیق شده و یا در کنار آن‌ها به صورت توأمان وجود دارد که این عامل از ویژگی‌های بارز آرایه‌های هندسی محراب‌های گچبری دوره ایلخانی به شمار می‌رود. طراحی کتیبه در چله‌خانه حاصل ترکیب عناصر متعددی است که در ترکیب و اتصالات آن از گره‌های ترئینی میانی، انتهای تزئینی حروف، تزئینات ساقه‌ها و طرح‌های گیاهی، تزئینات ریز نقش‌های متنوع استفاده شده است. اما در کارکرد معناگرایانه این نقش و تزیینات مشخص گردید که گچبری‌ها، اسلیمی و اعداد مقدس و کتیبه‌های موجود در این بنا همه در جهت ایجاد رابطه معنایی بین عناصر کالبدی و غیر کالبدی در جهت ایجاد مفاهیم عرفانی اسلامی جهت فراهم آمدن شرایط مناسب برای خلوت نشینی سالکان بوده است.}, keywords_fa = {تزئینات,گچبری,چله خانه,بایزید بسطامی,معماری اسلامی}, url = {https://negareh.shahed.ac.ir/article_838.html}, eprint = {https://negareh.shahed.ac.ir/article_838_474520651b7edaa6f5a4a62489acfa3d.pdf} } @article { author = {Imaneian Najafabadi, Maliheh and Hessami Kermani, Mansour}, title = {“Nature”, the Manifestation of Sacred Place in Persian Painting Reflection of the Iranian Archetypes of "Land" and "Mountain" in Persian Painting With the Help of Mircea Eliade's Views}, journal = {Negareh Journal}, volume = {13}, number = {47}, pages = {131-145}, year = {2018}, publisher = {Shahed University}, issn = {2676-7244}, eissn = {2676-7244}, doi = {10.22070/negareh.2018.3172.1878}, abstract = {Landscape painting in Iran, is part of the narrative and literary context, but it has a particularly influential and distinctive look, which takes a particular look at nature and has a symbolic aspect. In one general principle of Persian painting, spring is considered for the scene and location of the adventures and their time represents an eternal state that gives it an expression of holiness. In this research, the mythological aspects of nature in the Shiraz school of painting of the 8th to 10th centuries AH are examined, which appear to be related to the themes of the creation of nature in ancient Iranian culture. The symbols of nature and the story of creation, which are one of the most important subjects of the mythology of each culture, are represented by the specific expressions of the elements of nature and landscapes in Iranian art. The reflection of some of the "sacred place" themes in Iranian art is accompanied by evidence of nature and more in relation to the elements of "mountain" and "earth". To this end, this study uses Eliade's view of  "sacred" in the creation myth and for the study of the Iranian myths of creation, pre-Islamic texts are referred to as the different parts of the Avesta, and in particular the "Bondahesh. By examining the landscapes of Persian paintings from the 8th to 10th centuries AH, it is clear that the manifestation of nature in Persian painting has a common pattern that can be found through the study of the mythology of ancient Iranian creation. Usually, "the land and the mountain", along with the reference to the symbol "water" in the center, is a common combination in the various schools of Iran, which is always described in the form of spring scenery. What matters is the understanding of the existential meaning of this composition and the kind of landscape-oriented look at the mythological patterns of the mountain and the earth. It is certain that the visualization of place and time in the landscape of Persian painting does not simply imply visual perception or excitement, but rather, it represents a permanent eruption of life in images and it is a sacred place. Shining all forms of painting in light and dismissing perspective science are also for the sights. Iranian painting in a perfectionist and unifying idea portrays the images of each element of nature with their own identity and importance, and in a manner of early and eternal harmony, which portrays them as "the sanctity of nature" and the patterns of "creation" in mythology. This point approaches to Eliade's view. Iranian landscapes sometimes have the main mythological elements of Iran's nature, such as the mountains, and especially the Alborz Mountains, which is consistent with the description of these elements in the mythological context of Iran. Looking at the forms of expressing the landscapes and nature in Shiraz school from the 8th to 10th centuries AH, it seems that their relationship with Iranian myths and the existence of a bond between their common souls is acceptable. In this regard, the ideas of mythology of Eliade about Creation and manifestation of the sacred in the form of "ancient patterns of nature" is acceptable for the art of Persian painting. Because from the viewpoint of Eliade, the narrative myth is an event at the time of its beginning in this regard and the main task of mythology is the recurrent recall of the same incident. So the perfection that myths narrate is only at the beginning. Therefore, the identification and retrieval of "sacred samples and patterns" of nature is an aim which is pursued by the artist in order to re-establish and sustain them. These ancient patterns are commonly used according to the taste and memory of the Iranian painters of different periods, and involved small differences in a general rule. The special expression of the naturalization of Iranian painting, and in particular the use of the fundamental elements of the creation of nature, is the same as in the mythological narratives of the Iranians, and is even referred to directly in some cases. This was more evident in the paintings of the Shiraz school and in the central Iranian area which was more loyal to ancient Iranian culture than other Iranian areas.
