Istanbul Aya Sofya October 2016 9166.jpg

In a corridor-like structure to the right of the mimber there is a panel in Iznik tiles that is situated in the wall of this corridor. It shows scenes of the mosque in Mecca, though it is partly ruined by a single tile (probably put there as some sort of "restoration".

This is a rather bad picture of the tiles in that corridor.

Well, it was by necessity as progress into the corridor was forbidden. So 9144b was computer-corrected.

Like the perspective. V
