EDITORS COMMENTS
Selim III, also known as Selim Kahn III, was the Sultan of the Ottoman Empire from 1789 to 1807. This stunning mezzotint print, created by the English artist John Young in 1815, captures the regal presence of Selim III with remarkable detail and precision. The portrait showcases the Sultan's intricately designed clothing and accessories, including his long, flowing robe with teal and blue accents, circular headdress adorned with pearls and precious stones, and ornate beard and mustache. The background is kept simple, with a plain circular frame drawing the focus to the Sultan's face and attire. The print, hand-coloured with brush and watercolour on ivory wove, is a testament to the artistic skill of John Young and the rich heritage of Ottoman art. The use of black and blue tones adds depth and contrast to the image, while the traditional costume and bearded appearance of Selim III convey the historical significance of this powerful ruler. The portrait is a valuable addition to any art collection, offering a glimpse into the fashion, culture, and history of the Ottoman Empire during the late 18th and early 19th centuries.
