Land of beautiful horses, land of stones, fairy chimneys, rock-cut houses, cave churches...
From the Hittites to the Byzantines, from the Seljuks to the present day… Cappadocia.
A standard reference book in its field, Cappadocia has been completely revised and enriched with hundreds of colour illustrations for this new edition.
“One of the best books on Cappadocia is the one written by the novelist Gürsel Korat. In his book, not only does Korat explore the symbols and metaphors of Byzantine iconography with passion and competence, he also gives those who have never visited the region the necessary keys to understand Christian architecture and visual art.”
–Paul Dumont
