A view of interior dome of Hekimoğlu Ali Pasha Mosque ~Turkish: Hekimoğlu Ali Paşa Camii İç Kubbesi~ in Fatih District of Şehr-i İstanbul, Turkey. Interior of the mosque is decorated with Classical Ottoman Rococo Art. Due to its relations with France, Ottoman architecture began to be influenced by the Baroque and Rococo styles that were popular in Europe. The Baroque style is noted as first being developed by Seljuk Turks, according to a number of academics. The decorative elements of the European Baroque and Rococo influenced even the religious Ottoman architecture.
