Persian Masjed-e Jmi Complex of buildings, chiefly of the Seljq period (see Seljq dynasty), in Efahn, Iran. The mosque (completed 1130) has a central courtyard framed by four huge eyvns, or vaulted niches. It is renowned for its fine brickwork, vaulting, and two domed sanctuaries. The brick dome of the main sanctuary ( 1070-75) is supported by heavy piers. The smaller domed chamber (1088) is known for its beauty of proportion; its dome, resting on a series of arches, is a structural masterpiece. The dome and the four-eyvn plan became standard for Seljq mosques
