Abstract

On the outskirts of the old fortification of Isfahan, the Chahā r-bā gh avenue was built during the expansion of the city in the reign of Š ā h ʻ Abbā s I. At the starting point of Chahā r-bā gh, the Jahā n-namā palace was built by his command as well, which was the entrance monument of the Dowlat-xā neh. Chahā r-bā gh and Jahā n-namā , like many other monuments of Isfahan, were destroyed after Safavids' collapse, particularly during the reign of Ẓ el al-Solṭ ā n, the Qajar governor of Isfahan. In some travel books of European travelers in Safavid era, and the textual and visual sources of Qajar, this district of Isfahan is mentioned and illustrated. The remaining visual sources of Safavid and Qajar era, and the documents of Dowlat-xā neh district in Pahlavi period, give us keys to find the location of the palace, and shed light on some of the architectural aspects of the complex that cannot be deciphered from textual sources. The present article is an attempt to a concurrent analysis of textual and visual sources. The extracted data helped in the development of the archaeological project of the Jahā n-namā palace, and the northern and southern parts of the palace, which belong to the periods before Safavids, and after them.
