The building that was originally the Monastery of the Holy Savior in Chora and is known as Kariye Museum today is regarded as one of the most sublime examples of Byzantine art because of its 13th-century mosaics and frescoes in the parecclesion or chapel section.
The level of artistic achievement attained in the Kariye frescoes parallels the pre-renaissance movement that began in Italy with Giotto and heralds the advent of a new style in Byzantine art. Chora: The Scroll of Heaven takes the reader on a scholarly and artistic journey that delves all the details of this jewel-like structure.
The book's text was written by Cyril Mango, one of the most respected names today in the field of Byzantine art history, while its photographs were taken by Ahmet Ertug, an internationally recognized architect. The photographs appearing in the book were exhibited at the International Byzantine Congress held in Paris in 2002, where they received many accolades. The exhibition is currently scheduled to be repeated at the Japan Foundation in Tokyo during 2003 and at the Bates College Art Museum in the United States during the Byzantine Congress to be held there.
Chora: The Scroll of Heaven presents the reader with exquisite details of Byzantine art at Kariye Museum that hitherto have been inaccessible to ordinary visitors.
