Abstract

In the XVI century the Mediterranean area was characterized bytwo contrasting imperial realities: on the one hand, the OttomanEmpire dominated the territories rom the south o the Balkanregion all the way to southern Spain; on the other hand, theEuropean monarchies were competing or the conquest o thenorthern territories. These two dierent socio-political identitiesgave rise to many priceless architectural works in which we 65 can identiy elements o continuity, signicant dierences, andreciprocal inuences.Important examples to be studied or this type o comparisoninclude:Mimar Sinan, chie architect o the Ottoman Empire: over aperiod o ty years he was able to construct many buildings,including around one hundred mosques based on a central domestructure.Philibert de l‘Orme in service to Henri II: his masterpiece o the Châteu d’Anet or Diane de Poitiers was designed on the basiso sterotomic stone vaults central the to the nascent “art du trait”tradition.Vandelvira: under the Spanish Empire o Phillip II he openedthe door to the construction o Escorial whose structure was richin architectural solutions through a skilul use o stereotomicstone building techniques.The work o each o these three architects has great value whenstudied alone, but acquires much more importance whencompared together. It is particularly interesting to identiy thestylistic inuences in these artistic productions, to compare thebuilding techniques and the technical inventions, as well as othersimilarities in the overall architectural solutions. The numerouscommon items – technical and aesthetic – are emblematic o ahigh mobility at that time.
