EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases Capidji Bachi, a private officer of the Grand Signior or Sultan, dressed in his common attire. The image captures the essence of the Regency era and offers a glimpse into the fashion and culture of the Ottoman Empire. Capidji Bachi stands tall, donning an impressive high headdress that adds to his commanding presence. His embroidered cloak with fur trim exudes opulence and elegance, while loose pants provide comfort and freedom of movement. Completing his ensemble are vibrant yellow slippers that add a touch of vibrancy to his overall appearance. The handcoloured copperplate engraving beautifully brings out every intricate detail of this magnificent costume, showcasing the artistry involved in its creation. This artwork is part of William Alexander's translation titled "Picturesque Representations of the Dress and Manners of the Turks" which provides invaluable insights into Turkish fashion during this period. As we admire this stunning portrayal, we are transported back in time to witness not only a unique style but also gain an understanding of Islamic culture through clothing. This print serves as a visual testament to Turkey's rich history and its influence on global fashion trends.
