<p style="TEXT-ALIGN: center" class="MsoNormal" align="center"><font size="2" face="Arial"><span style="FONT-FAMILY: Arial; FONT-SIZE: 10pt" lang="EN-US">The travel books of Cornelis de Bruijn, one of the most important travelers of the Dutch Golden Age, constituted important contributions to European scholarly knowledge about the Orient, Russia and the Far East. In particular the many drawings in De Bruijn’s travel accounts are of high quality value and great importance. The focus in this talk will be on De Bruijn’s description in words and pictures of the ancient palace complex of Persepolis, and the scholarly debate it aroused.</span></font></p>

<p style="TEXT-ALIGN: center" class="MsoNormal" align="center"><font size="2" face="Arial"><span style="FONT-FAMILY: Arial; FONT-SIZE: 10pt" lang="NL">Holanda Altın Çağı’nın en önemli gezginlerinden biri olan Cornelis de Bruijn’in seyahat kitapları, Avrupa’nın Doğu, Rusya ve Uzakdoğu hakkında sahip olduğu ilmi bilgilere kayda değer bir katkı sağlamıştır. Özellikle De Bruijn’in eserlerinde yer verdiği çok sayıdaki çizim hem oldukça yüksek bir kalite sergilemekte hem de büyük önem taşımaktadır. Bu konuşmanın odak noktasını De Bruijn’in Persepolis’deki antik saray kompleksini kelime ve çizimleriyle anlatımı ile uyandırdığı bilimsel tartışmalar oluşturacaktır.</span></font></p>
