Caption: This print showcases the historic Battle of Preveza in 1538, where Barbarossa Hayreddin Pasha, a prominent Ottoman admiral, led his naval forces to defeat the Holy League commanded by Andrea Doria and Charles V. The painting captured here was created by Ohannes Umed Behzad in 1866 and is currently housed at the Turkish Naval Museum in Istanbul. The Battle of Preveza marked a significant victory for the Ottoman Empire during its expansion into the Mediterranean. Barbarossa Hayreddin Pasha's strategic brilliance and naval prowess allowed him to outmaneuver and overpower the combined forces of Charles V's Holy League fleet. This triumph solidified Ottoman dominance over crucial trade routes and further established their maritime power. Ohannes Umed Behzad's painting beautifully depicts this momentous battle, showcasing intricate details of warships engaged in fierce combat amidst turbulent waters. The artist masterfully captures the intensity and chaos of this historical event while highlighting key figures such as Barbarossa Hayreddin Pasha himself. As an invaluable artifact within Turkey's rich naval history, this painting serves as a testament to both Ottoman military achievements and artistic excellence. Its presence at the Turkish Naval Museum allows visitors to immerse themselves in this pivotal chapter of world history while appreciating Behzad's skillful brushwork that brings it to life once more.
