EDITORS COMMENTS

Abdul Hamid II, the Sultan of Turkey, was a prominent figure in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. Known for his reign during a period of great change and turmoil, he faced numerous challenges that shaped both his rule and the destiny of the Ottoman Empire. In this engraving depicting Abdul Hamid II, we see a glimpse of his regal presence. The intricate details capture the essence of his power and authority as he navigated through an era marked by political unrest. The colour lithograph titled "The awakening of the Eastern Question" sheds light on one of Abdul Hamid II's greatest challenges. As Europe's interest in Ottoman territories grew, tensions escalated. This artwork symbolizes the complex web woven by competing powers vying for control over these lands. Another lithograph portrays "The Turkish constitution, " illustrating an important milestone during Abdul Hamid II's reign. It highlights his efforts to modernize and reform the empire amidst growing demands for constitutional rights from various factions within society. While known for his political endeavors, it also had personal interests outside ruling. In black-and-white photography capturing "The story of Hope Diamond, " we catch a glimpse into his fascination with precious gems and their histories - perhaps providing him solace amid turbulent times. "The favourite games of great men" showcases another facet of Abdul Hamid II's life - leisure activities enjoyed by influential figures like himself. This colourful lithograph offers insight into how even rulers found time to indulge in recreational pursuits amidst their responsibilities. Depicted again in vibrant colours is Sultan Abdul Hamid II himself - a testament to how widely recognized he was during this era. His image reflects not only power but also vulnerability as he grappled with internal strife while trying to maintain stability within an ever-changing world order. A satirical lithograph presents an intriguing juxtaposition between deposed Moroccan Sultan Abdelaziz and our protagonist, highlighting connections and alliances formed during Abdul Hamid II's reign.
