Ottoman miniature paintings were a key artistic form in the Ottoman Expire, flourishing from the 16th to the 19th centuries. These intricate artworks typically depicted scenes from everyday life, historical events, literature, and religious texts. Executed with meticulous detail and vibrant colours, Ottoman miniatures often adorned manuscripts, albums, and architectural elements. They served as both decorative and narrative expressions of the empire's culture, society, and values, blending influences from Persian, Arabic and Turkish artistic traditions.
This particular Ottoman miniature was hand painted in the 1980s on paper extracted from very old Ottoman manuscripts. It was originally acquired in Istanbul, Turkey.
