This print from the Liszt Collection showcases a historical figure of great importance in the Ottoman Empire. Known as Capoudgi Bachi, he held prestigious titles such as Grand Master of the Seraglio and senior door keeper of the Serail. Another name associated with him is Ibriktar Aghassi, which refers to his role in providing washing water to the sultan. In this full-length portrait, Capoudgi Bachi stands tall and proud, holding a staff in his right hand. Surrounding him are members of the royal household, courtiers, and his retinue. The composition exudes an air of power and authority that befits his esteemed position. The artist behind this masterpiece is Jean Baptiste Vanmour or someone from his workshop.
