The Last Caliph, Abdul Majid II (1868-1944) Deposed from the Throne by the Ankara Assembly
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This print captures a significant moment in history when the last caliph of the Ottoman Empire, Abdul Majid II, was dethroned by the Ankara Assembly. Taken from Le Petit Journal in 1924, this color lithograph showcases an important event that marked the end of an era. Abdul Majid II's deposition symbolized more than just a change in leadership; it represented a pivotal shift towards secularism and modernization under Mustapha Kemal Ataturk. The abolition of Turkish caliphate signaled Turkey's transition into a new era as it embraced a more progressive and inclusive society. In this portrait, we see Abdul Majid II wearing his iconic fez, which was synonymous with Ottoman tradition and authority. However, his expression reveals both resignation and uncertainty as he faces an uncertain future outside of power. The image serves as a reminder of how political landscapes can transform over time and how leaders once revered can be swiftly removed from their positions. It also highlights Ataturk's determination to create a secular state that would shape Turkey for generations to come. As we delve into this historical photograph, we are reminded not only of its artistic value but also its significance in capturing one man's fall from grace amidst broader societal changes.
