ISBN-10 : 9751745799 / ISBN-13 : 978-9751745798 |
I have the book and it is a nice budget alternative to Unsal Ucel's book. The pictures inside are nice and big. Unfortunately, it is entirely in Turkish so I have no way of commenting on the text. I bought it online a few years ago, which was a good thing, as it is not available in the Museum shop in Top Kapi anymore.
