Editor's Note
The Turkish and Islamic Arts Museum is a museum on Sultanahmet Square in Istanbul's Fatih district, the first Turkish museum to comprehensively cover works of Islamic art. It first opened in 1914 and in 1983 moved into the palace of Pargalı Ibrahim Pasha, grand vizier of Suleiman the Magnificent, a building constructed in 1524. The collection includes notable examples of Islamic calligraphy, tiles, and rugs, as well as ethnographic displays on various cultures in Turkey, particularly nomad groups.
