If I were a tourist - house-museum of Mirteymur Mammadov VIDEO
Baku, May 13, AZERTAC
AZERTAC continues to publish information about fascinating but little-known sights in the regions of Azerbaijan, Baku and its surroundings within the framework of a new column.
This time, our path leads to the house-museum of Mirteymur Mammadov. This place is not just a residential building - here you can feel the breath of the past, the walls seem to speak, and the silence resounds with deep meanings.
Located in the very center of the Old City, at 90 Muslim Magomayev Street, this house cannot be mistaken for any other building. Its façade seems to have been born from the dreams of an artist: hundreds of ceramic tiles, each of which is a separate work of art. Both the external and internal courtyard walls of the three-story building are decorated with tiles, small bas-reliefs, male and female figures, animal images, zodiac signs, symbols and mythological creatures. All these elements form a unity with each other, turning the walls into a living mosaic of meaning and creating a visual gallery for everyone who enters the museum.
Inside the museum, narrow corridors, deep silence, a workshop full of tools that seemed to have been laid out a minute ago, books and notes – everything preserves the warmth of the artist's hands, the breath of creativity. Mirteymur Mammadov's house-museum is an invitation to a dialogue with the past.
This is a place where art speaks to the land, history and human soul. Here, clay speaks, the past speaks to the present, and the visitor finds inner silence at every step.
