Frescoes, Et'hem Bey Mosque, Tirana, Albania
Prayer carpets and frescoes in the Et'hem Bey Mosque or Xhamia e Et'hem Beut, begun 1789 by Molla Bey and finished in 1823 by his son Haxhi Ethem Bey, great-grandson of Sulejman Pasha, Tirana, Albania. The frescoes decorating the mosque, unusual in Islamic art, depict trees, waterfalls, buildings and bridges. The mosque is listed as a Cultural Monument of Albania. Tirana was founded by the Ottomans in 1614 by Sulejman Bargjini and became the capital of Albania in 1920. Picture by Manuel Cohen
