Sultan Mehmed V rides with the Kaiser and Enver Pasha
Sultan Mehmed V Reshad of Turkey in a carriage with Kaiser Wilhelm II of Germany and Minister for War, Enver Pasha. Sultan Mehmed V Reshad of Turkey (1844 - 1918). Sultan of the Ottoman Empire from 1909 until his death in 1918, Mehmed - original name Mehmed Resad - spent much of his life in seclusion until the forced abdication of his brother Sultan Abdul Hamid II at the hands of the Young Turks in 1909. A kindly gentle man with an interest in Persian literature, Mehmed was effectively little more than a puppet Sultan whose actions were directed by leaders of the Committee of Union and Progress. Mehmed was little able to govern of his own accord and thus accepted direction from Young Turk leaders including Enver Pasha

EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures a historic moment in the annals of Ottoman and European history as Sultan Mehmed V Reshad of Turkey rides in a carriage with Kaiser Wilhelm II of Germany and Minister for War, Enver Pasha, along the banks of the Bosphorus in Istanbul in 1913. Mehmed V, originally named Mehmed Resad, ascended to the throne in 1909 following the forced abdication of his brother Sultan Abdul Hamid II by the Young Turks. A kindly and gentle man with a deep interest in Persian literature, Mehmed was effectively a puppet Sultan whose actions were directed by the leaders of the Committee of Union and Progress. The Young Turk leaders, including Enver Pasha, sought to modernize the Ottoman Empire and bring it into the European fold. In this effort, they sought the support of European powers, most notably Germany. This visit by Kaiser Wilhelm II was a significant display of German support for the Ottoman regime. Mehmed, dressed in a traditional Ottoman helmet and seated between his German and Turkish counterparts, appears somewhat dwarfed by the grandeur of the occasion. The procession along the Bosphorus was a grand spectacle, with the Ottoman and German militaries on display, and the spiked helmets of the Ottoman soldiers adding to the open display of military might. The Ottoman Empire was in a state of transition, and this photograph offers a unique glimpse into a pivotal moment in its history. The Ottoman Empire, once a powerful and influential empire, was on the brink of collapse, and this visit from the German Kaiser and Minister for War would ultimately prove to be a turning point in its demise. This photograph is a testament to the complex web of alliances and power dynamics that characterized the early 20th century. It serves as a reminder of the intricate relationships between European powers and the Ottoman Empire, and the role that external influences played in shaping the course of Ottoman history.
