EDITORS COMMENTS
1. Title: Exterior of the Shrine to Sultan Mustafa III, Istanbul This handcoloured copperplate engraving showcases the exterior of the shrine, or Turbe, to Sultan Mustafa III in Istanbul, Turkey. The image, created by Giarre after Giulio Ferrario in his "Costumes Ancient and Modern of the Peoples of the World," published in Florence in 1842, offers a glimpse into the rich history and architectural beauty of the Ottoman Empire. Situated in the city's historic district of Bursa, the Turbe of Sultan Mustafa III is a significant historical site and a testament to the grandeur of the Ottoman sultans. Mustafa III, who ruled from 1757 to 1774, was also known as Gazi Mustafa, meaning "conqueror," due to his military victories. The exterior of the shrine is adorned with intricate geometric patterns and Arabic calligraphy, reflecting the Islamic influence on Ottoman architecture. The central structure is topped by a large dome, surrounded by smaller domes and minarets. Candles and candlesticks are depicted in the foreground, suggesting the importance of light and prayer in Islamic tradition. The engraving, copied from Ignace Mouradgea d'Ohsson's "Tableau General de L'Empire Othoman," published in Paris in 1790, is a valuable historical record of the architectural and cultural heritage of the Ottoman Empire. The detailed illustration invites us to explore the intricacies of this magnificent structure and the stories it holds within its walls. This image offers a unique glimpse into the past, providing insights into the fashion, history, and culture of the Ottoman Empire during the 18th century. The Turbe of Sultan Mustafa III stands as a testament to the artistic and architectural achievements of the Ottoman people, and a reminder of the rich history and diversity of the Islamic world.
