EDITORS COMMENTS
The print titled "Death of Koprili the Virtuous" captures a pivotal moment in history, frozen in time. The lithograph by John Harris Valda depicts Zade Mustapha Koprili, a man known for his virtue and leadership as Grand Vizier to Suleiman II. In this scene, we witness the clash between two powerful forces: the Ottoman army led by Koprili and their European adversaries. Armed with swords, rapiers, cannons, and guns, both sides engage in a fierce battle on the battlefield of Salankamen. Koprili's presence is commanding as he stands tall amidst the chaos wearing a turban adorned with a plume. His sash symbolizes his authority as commander while his scimitar reflects his Turkish heritage. Despite being greatly outnumbered by their opponents, Koprili's troops fight valiantly under his leadership. This engraving not only portrays an intense conflict but also highlights the bravery and determination of those involved. It serves as a reminder of the sacrifices made during wartime and honors Koprili's legacy as an esteemed leader who fought for his people until his last breath. Displayed in private collections around the world, this litho invites viewers to reflect upon historical events that have shaped our present-day society. Through its intricate details and masterful execution, it transports us back to an era where battles were fought with honor and courage defined heroes like Zade Mustapha Koprili
