Abstract:

 The İnce Minareli Madrasah was built by the Anatolian Seljuk state in the province of Konya and is one of the citys most important works. It is an architectural masterpiece that includes the features of the Anatolian Seljuk period, adding to the cultural richness of Konya. The madrasah stands out with its tile decorations. It was constructed using stone, brick, and tile materials, and the tile decorations were applied to the architectural elements. Our research discusses and describes the remaining tiles in detail. During excavations in the area where the İnce Minareli Madrasah is located, some tile pieces were unearthed and stored in the museums warehouse. The research we conducted aimed to analyze the tiles preserved in the Konya Karatay Madrasah Museum warehouse. These tiles have not been studied in detail before, making our research rather noteworthy. Upon examining the tiles belonging to the İnce Minareli Madrasah, we discovered that they were applied to the architectural surface using two different techniques. To explore the tile pieces in detail, we analyzed them one by one, from work 1 to work 17, along with their visuals, techniques, and dimensions.

 Anadolu Selçuklu Devletinin Konya ilinde yaptırmış olduğu İnce Minareli Medrese, şehrin önemli yapılarından biridir. Konyaya kültürel zenginlik kazandıran bu mimari yapı Anadolu Selçuklu dönemi mimari yapılarının özelliklerini ihtiva etmektedir. İnce Minareli Medrese sahip olduğu süslemelerle ön plana çıkmaktadır. Taş, tuğla ve çini malzemelerle yapılandırılan medresenin çini süslemeleri mimari elemanlar üzerine uygulanmıştır. Bu çinilerin günümüzde mevcut olanları araştırmamızda ele alınarak belirtilmiştir. İnce Minareli Medresenin bulunduğu alanda yapılan kazı çalışmaları neticesinde bazı çini parçalar ortaya çıkarılmış ve müzenin deposuna alınmıştır. Mevcut haliyle Konya Karatay Medresesi müze deposunda korunmakta olan bu çinilerin detaylı olarak çalışılmamış olması araştırmamız olarak bu konunun belirlenmesinde etkili olmuştur. Bulunan çinilerin incelenmesi neticesinde parçaların mimaride uygulanmış olduğu ve iki farklı çini tekniği ile yapıldıkları anlaşılmıştır. Çalışmamızda çini parçaların ayrıntılı olarak incelenebilmesi için parçalar tek tek, eser 1den eser 17ye kadar görsel, teknik ve ebatlarıyla birlikte ele alınmıştır. Araştırma çini sanatına katkı sağlayan önemli bir çalışma olup bundan sonra yapılacak olan çalışmalara da örnek teşkil edecektir.
