EDITORS COMMENTS
This Catalogue illustration showcases a selection of exquisite donations made during the late Ottoman Empire era, circa 1890s, in the aftermath of war. The illustration includes four distinct items that were generously contributed to aid the wounded soldiers and their families. The first item, a yellow silk embroidered cover, was graciously donated by the Sultan himself. The second item, a blue sofa cover intricately embroidered in gold and silk thread, was also a generous gift from the Sultan. The third item, an embroidery piece, was meticulously crafted and donated by the Sultan's younger daughter, adding a personal touch to the collection. The fourth item, a tobacco set, was skillfully made in the workshops of the Yildiz Palace and donated by the Sultan. The tobacco set, made of ivory and mother-of-pearl, is a fine example of the Ottoman Empire's rich artistic heritage. This Catalogue illustration serves as a testament to the patronage and generosity of the Ottoman rulers during a time of need. The illustration, produced as a chromolithograph, was likely used in a fundraising bazaar or similar event to showcase the items and encourage donations. The Arabic and French text in the illustration reflects the multicultural influences that shaped the Ottoman Empire during this period. This ornate and intricately designed Catalogue illustration is a reminder of the power of community and the generosity of those in positions of power during times of hardship. It is a beautiful and historically significant piece that offers a glimpse into the rich cultural heritage of the Ottoman Empire during the late 1800s.
