This is the first book to study the medieval monument of the Gunbad-i 'Alawiyan in Hamadan, Iran, a striking architectural phenomenon featuring exquisite brick and stucco decoration both within and without. The author offers solutions to a number of controversial questions surrounding the structure, including the identity of the patron who commissioned the monument and the reason for its erection.
