EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the portrait of Solyman II, a prominent figure in Ottoman history. The painting, created by John Young in 1808, is part of a series that depicts the Emperors of Turkey. Solyman II reigned as Sultan from 1687 to 1691 and left an indelible mark on his empire. In this exquisite artwork, Solyman II is depicted seated cross-legged on a corner seat adorned with luxurious robes. His regal presence is enhanced by the majestic turban atop his head and the ermine fur draped around his shoulders. The artist's attention to detail brings out every intricate feature of the Sultan's attire. The composition exudes an orientalist charm, capturing both the opulence and power associated with Ottoman rulership. Solyman II's gaze reflects wisdom and authority while also revealing a sense of introspection. This remarkable print offers viewers a glimpse into history, allowing us to appreciate not only the artistic skill employed but also gain insight into one of Turkey's most influential leaders. It serves as a testament to Young's talent as well as Bridgeman Images' commitment to preserving and sharing fine art masterpieces for all to enjoy.
