GERMANY_Munich - St Johann Nepomuk Kirche ceiling

ST JOHANN NEPOMUK CHURCH - Baroque Catolic Church of St Johann Nepomuk, better known as the Asam Church. It's pretty unusul and has an interesting story. St Nepomuk was built in 18th cent by brothers Asam for private use and it's connectd (share the wall) to their house. The high, narrow interior, mysteriously lit from above, is richly decorated with paint, stuccowork, sculpture, and gilt. The ceiling is decorated with painted figures ascending into a space that seems to transcend architectural boundaries.

The Ceiling

I travelled to different parts of Kavir(desert) in Iran. I saw so many Islamic Architectural geometry designs on the ceilings and facades of mosques and old buildings that made me VERY surprised. Of course I was not able to record all of these beauties with my little compact digi camera, but tried to capture these beauties with best of my photography abilities ! For those people who have not been in Iran and would like to learn more about the Islamic Architectural geometry, I managed to get the following sites from Yahoo search: http://www.npr.org/templates/story/story.php?storyId=7544360 http://www.reuters.com/article/scienceNews/idUSN2245118920070222?pageNumber=2 http://www.rferl.org/featuresarticle/2007/02/027d03ee-3fee-47e0-a65b-7cc9b2ad54e7.html http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Islamic_architecture
