This striking photograph captures the Turkish stand at the Exposition Universelle in Paris, 1900, showcasing the rich history and culture of the Ottoman Empire. At the heart of the exhibit is an Ottoman soldier in full regalia, standing proudly before his country's pavilion. The soldier wears a traditional fez hat, adorned with the crescent and star emblem, and carries a parasol to shield himself from the sun. His uniform is a testament to the grandeur of the Ottoman military, with intricate embroidery and gold braid adorning his jacket and trousers. A sword is slung at his side, adding to the soldier's imposing presence.
