Rüstem Pasha Mosque (Rüstem Pasa Camii), Istanbul, Turkey Designed by the Ottoman imperial architect, Mimar Sinan for the Grand Vizier Damat Rüstem Pasha (who was married to one of Suleiman the Great’s daughters) and built after his death in 1561, Rüstem Pasha Mosque features tiles produced in the western Anatolian town of Iznik which, at this time, had became a centre for the production of ceramics. Initially the colours, turquoise and cobalt blue were used but later in the 16th century, sage green and pale purple were introduced. These were then replaced by the use of a red colour and a brighter emerald green. By the 17th century the quality of the pottery and tiles was poor and they were no longer used.These different colours are featured on the tiles both inside and on the facade of the mosque.On Friday the crowds can flow out on to the terrance and the Mihrab (the concave recess in the centre of the photo) shows the worshippers the direction of Mecca
