Solyman the Magnificent, fourth Emperor of the Turks, succeeded to the throne at
Solyman the Magnificent, fourth Emperor of the Turks, succeeded to the throne at age 28 on the death of his father Selim I in 1520. He died on 4th September 1566. He was described as of stature tall, of feature slender, long necked, his colour pale and wan, his nose long and hooked, of nature ambitious and bountifull, more faithfull of his word and promise than were for most part the Mahometan Kings his progenitors. This portrait is taken from the rare manuscript Kiyafet-ul-Insaniyyeh (personal descriptions of the Osmanli Sultans) in the Oriental Department of the British Museum. This manuscript was composed in A.H. 997 (A.D. 1589) by Lukman Shahnameji (royal poet annalist), and illustrated with portraits after contemporary originals.

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the esteemed Solyman the Magnificent, who ascended to power as the fourth Emperor of the Turks at a youthful age of 28. Following his father Selim I's demise in 1520, Solyman took charge and ruled until his passing on September 4th, 1566. Renowned for his towering stature and slender frame, he possessed a pale complexion and a distinctive long, hooked nose. Described as an ambitious and generous leader, Solyman was known for honoring his word and promises more faithfully than many of his predecessors among the Mahometan Kings. This remarkable portrait is derived from an extraordinary manuscript called Kiyafet-ul-Insaniyyeh (personal descriptions of the Osmanli Sultans), which resides within the Oriental Department of the British Museum. The manuscript itself was composed by Lukman Shahnameji, a royal poet annalist in A. H. 997 (A. D. 1589). It features exquisite illustrations that were crafted based on contemporary originals during that era. The image not only offers us a glimpse into history but also provides valuable insights into Turkish royalty during this significant period
