Titled "Paedagogi habitus, qui Christianam prolem in disceplinam acceperit" it depicts various individuals dressed in traditional costumes, each representing a different aspect of Turkish society. In the foreground, we see a Christian child being educated by his tutor, symbolizing the importance of education within Christianity. The boy's attire reflects his religious affiliation while highlighting the fusion of Eastern and Western influences in Turkish clothing during this period. Moving towards the center, we encounter a group presenting tribute to the Turkish Emperor. Clad in richly embroidered garments and ornate headpieces, they exemplify the opulence associated with imperial ceremonies.
