EDITORS COMMENTS
Abdul Hamid Khan, Sultan of the Ottoman Empire (r. 1774-1789), is depicted in this stunning mezzotint print hand-colored with brush and watercolor on ivory wove by John Young. Created in the late 18th or early 19th century, this artwork is part of the "Portraits of the Emperors of Turkey" series and is currently housed at the Art Institute of Chicago. Sultan Abdul Hamid Khan is shown wearing ornate and intricately designed clothing typical of the Ottoman court during his reign. He is dressed in a long, brown robe with a wide, circular collar and a matching turban adorned with gold and jewels. The sultan's facial hair is neatly groomed and styled in a full beard, which was a sign of power and maturity in Ottoman culture. The print is framed in an elegant gold inset, adding to the regal and grandeur of the image. The background is left blank, drawing all attention to the intricate details of the sultan's apparel and the intense expression on his face. This artwork provides a glimpse into the rich history and cultural heritage of the Ottoman Empire during the late 18th century. It also showcases the exceptional skill of John Young as a mezzotint engraver and hand-colorist. The intricate details of the sultan's clothing and facial features are brought to life through the use of delicate brushstrokes and precise watercolor application. This print is a valuable addition to any collection of historical art, particularly for those with an interest in the Ottoman Empire, Turkish history, or the art of the 18th and 19th centuries.
