EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Ms 1671 The Sultan with his favourite accompanied by musicians and singers, c. 1580" takes us back to the vibrant world of 16th-century Ottoman Turkey. Created by an Islamic School artist, this gouache on paper artwork is now housed in the Museo Correr in Venice, Italy. The image showcases a scene from the harem or seraglio, where the Sultan is seen walking alongside his favorite mistress. They are surrounded by talented musicians and singers who fill the air with enchanting melodies. The atmosphere is filled with joy as they play traditional Turkish instruments such as baglama, cura, and tambura. The painting offers a glimpse into the opulent lifestyle of the Ottoman Empire's elite class during that era. It highlights not only their love for music but also their appreciation for beauty and artistry. As we delve deeper into this mesmerizing street scene of Istanbul (formerly Constantinople), we can almost hear the melodious tunes echoing through its narrow alleys. This artwork allows us to immerse ourselves in a time when music was an integral part of daily life and served as a means of entertainment and expression. Through this evocative piece, we are transported to another time and place—a moment frozen in history that captures both cultural richness and personal connections within one frame.
