Europe and the Ottomans: Interactions in Art Giinsel Renda The cultural relations between the European countries and the Ottoman State, which renewed its borders with the European states since its formative years and gradually expanded into Central Europe, followed a Tine dependent on political events and left significant traces in art. ‘The Ottoman Empire’ relations with the West throughout the certuries were mainly teated in 4 politica! context and the impact of the Ottoman culture on this extensive geography was not studied extensively by the researchers. How the cultural exchange between the West and East was reflected in art and culture in the two milieus started to acquire clarity with the research cartied on in both Turkey and in Europe in recent years and with the exhibitions and cultural activities organized. ‘The spread of Islam in the Near East and Mediterranean during the Middle Ages brought the Islamie world into contact with Christian Europe. In a short period of time, the Europeans start- ed the Crusader campaigns against the Islamic countries, which were directed by a religious dogma that was contrary to Catholicism. However, after the eleventh century the Turks spread in the Near East, subsequently estabished the Ottoman State, seized the Byzantine territories and settled in Anatolia and the Balkans. This not only changed the geography of the Eastern ‘Mediterranean, but brought the Europeans face to face with a much mare crushing power. I response to the continuing Crusader threat by the Europeans, the conquest of Istanbul and its ‘becoming the capital city of the Ottoman Empire has provided an unimpeded Ottoman sover- eignty in the Black Sea, Eastern Mediterranean and Near Eastern geography. In the following centuries, the Western world would confrant the Ottoman culture in different geographies and different conditions and the rulers and art patrons, as much as the political, diplomatic and trade relations, would have 2 great role in this cultural exchange, Sultan Mehmed the Conqueror and the west The cultural identity and the art patronage of Sultan Mehmed the Conqueror, who was one of the rare rulers who changed the course of world history, left deep traces in the Western and Eastern world. The relations with Europe of Mehmed Il, who was interested in ancient history and the Western culture from an early age, did not remain only in a politica framework; he was also the first Ottoman ruler who entered into a cultural exchange with the West. A short peri~ (d after his conquest of Istarbul and making it the capital city of the Ottomans, he settled at ‘the new Topkap: Palace and he enriched the library witha great number of scientific books writ, ten in various languages inthe fields of geography, medicine, history and philosophy. Among these were Bibles and the works of Homer. He benefited from Georgios Amirutze, the scholar from Trabzon, in the fields of philosophy and geagrapms. He even ordered a translation of the Bible from him and Amirutzes, by making use af a geography book called Geogrophite by Ptolemy, produced a map of the world!

Mehmed Il supported the Meticis of Florence by ordering the acest in Istanbul of Bernardo Bandini, the leader of the Pazzi uprising ‘against thers in 1479," Ir is known also that Mehmed requested trom Florence a sculptor, fur riture matet, woodwork ma ean organ artist. On the other hand, after the peace made with Ven 479, political and cultural exchanges with the Venetians increased, The sultan asked from the doge of Venice fora bronze caster who cout emake medals, ‘nd a sculptor. itis stated in the sources that in 1473-1480 Paduan sculptor Bartolomeo Beltann and the Venetian artist Gentile Bellini came to Istanoul. However, there is mare definite information about Gentile Belin’s work in Istanbul. Actually, Bellini was not 3 medalist, but he produced a portrait medal of the Sultan, Moreover, its thought that the Sultan sent this medal to Lorenzo dei Medici and that he had a copy of ths ‘made by Giovanni Bertoldo, his own palace artis.” Besides his por traits, the Sultan also commissioned city views and iandscapes from Belini, However, his most important work is the oll portrait that is ‘now at the National Gallery in London, both for Ottoman and European painting. la this portrait, Bellin used the Renaissance portrait model but stl folomed an oriental iconography. According to recent research, the e-owns on both sides of the arch in the por= trait symbolize the Ottoman sultans preceding Mehrted I, The sev tenth crown, that of the reigning Sultan Mehmed is found on the embroidered cover, The colors and the numbers of the precious ‘gems on this hanging fabric are thought to be connected to the symbolism of the oriental world, Thus in this portrait, @ Western painter succeeded in creating the realistic image of the emperor with oriental syrnbols* The important point is that Mehmed obtained what he wanted and the portrait medals he commissioned and their copies made in Europe provided for the spread of the image of the sultan in Europe. Certain sources indicate that in this period portrait medals ofthe Sultan circulated in Italy. Undoubtedly, the impact made in Eurage by the painters who came to Mehmed's court was not limited to these, Both Costanzo and Bellini during their stay in Istanbul produced many paintings about Turkey and the Ottomans and in particular, they documented various Turkish costumes. In fact, Bellini placed figures in Turkish costumes in many of his paintings after returning to Italy Bellini a5 well as many other fifteenth and sixteenth century painters, ed by the Venetian painters, used figures dressed in Turkish costumes in their paint’n9s depicting scenes from the Bible. For exarn- ple, atists such as Antonio Pisanelo, Vitore Carpaccio and Bernardino Pinturrichio placed rather realistic Turkish figures, Turkish costumes and Turkish carpets in some of their paintings, It's known that in this period the Ottoman fabrics and carpets were imported to Italy by Italian mer- chants, Moreover, fabrics similar to these wete produced in some of the Italian cities.” Turkish carpets depicted in fifteenth century Eurapran paintings are proof of their popularity’® ‘Sultan Bayezd I €id not seem to share his father's interest in European painting, but he was ‘aware of the activities of Italy's masters and requested architectursh and engineering services from some of them. For example, there is a letter Leonardo da Vine! wrote to Sultan Bayezid I, making 2 proposal for a floating bridge on the Goiden Horn, In fact, the drawing of such a bridge project found in Leorardo’s notebooks" Michelangelo also prepared a model for the M5 yeh Tish 709 The istanbul bridge project from the sketchbook of Leonardo da Vinci named Codex Leicester.

Intense ciplomatic relations were expe- rienced between the Ottomans and the European states because of Cem, who was initiaty imprisoned in France and later at the Vatican” There are books and paintings about Cem Sultan, who lived an adventurous life in Europe for approximately thirteen years, For example, Guillaume Caoursin, the Vice Chancellor of the Knights of St.John, added a section about the life of Cem Sultan to fis book about the siege of Rhodes by the Ottomans, Inthe original copy cof Caoursir’s book in te Bibliathegue Nationale in Paris there are miniatures showing the siege lf Rhodes and depicting Cem Sultan with the knights af Rhodes (PBN, Latin 6067).

However, especially during the forty-six year is observed that there was an increase in cul- tural exchange duc to political and commercial relations, Two different approaches towards reign of Sultan Suleyman the Magnificen, the Ottomans were encoustered in the sixteenth century European art and culture, The frst group were the books and materials produced with the reaction and fear against the crust ing, threatening power af the Turks {Ti {ergefah).

Vecellio, in the book he published in 1589, made use of Nicolas de Nicolay for the pictures of Turkish costumes * Melchior Lorichs from Flensburg, who came with the Ambassador Ogier Ghislain de Busbecq, sent by the Holy Roman Empire to the Ottoman court, produced the mast realistic paintings ‘epicting the period of Suleyman the Magnificent. During the five years he stayed in Istanbul, he also prepared a book about the politcal and military ganization during Sileyman's reign Lorichs' Istanbul panorama and his drawings of various districts, strets, monuments in Istanbul and his costumes are important visual documents for the Gttoman Empire in this period* Even the Ottoman family trees are printed in the books related to the Ottoman Empire, They are designed just as the European family tees, which have been quite widespread in Europe since the Middle Ages. In general, the bust portraits of the sultans are placed in medaliions hung on 2 tree. The most well-known are the portrait series in the book called Promptuarium leanum published by Guilaume Roullé in 1953 and the family tree drawn by painter Nicollo Neti in Sommario ef Alboro del Principi Othomani by the historian Francesco Sansovino, dated 1867. Portrait series of the Ottoman sultans were ever included in maps, There are bust portraits of the sultans added to the later copies ofthe bird's eye view of Istanbul drawn around 1820 by ‘Andrea Vavassore, the renowned Venetian cartographer Suleyman the Magnificent is one of the Ottoman rulers most frequently portrayed in Europe. Undoubtedly, this is because of the significant role he played in European polities throughout his reign for forty-six years, Suleyman’ aliance with Frangois |, who was defeated by the Habsburgs in 1826 and his Hungarian campaign against the Habsburgs is the most important political event of this period* In this manner, the Ottoman pressure on the Catholic Habsburgs facilitated the spread of Protestantism and Luther's success.” In fact, the portraits of the sultan became more widespread in Europe after his Mohées campaign and the 1529 ‘Vienna siege. As early 35 1526, Albrecht Durer, the German painter, drew the portrait of the Sultan. Tiziano, the Venetian artist, painted @ bust port'ait of Suleyman, and used images resembling the Sultan in some of his religious paintings. Undoubtedly, a majority of these por- traits were copied from images that already enisted. Most of them used as a model the ‘Sdleyman portrait drawn by Melchior Lorichs while he was in Istanbul The most interesting portrait was executed by Agostino Veneziano in 1535, which shows the sultan with a helmet decorated with precious jewels. This helmet, in the shape af a crown, was a commission made bby the Grand Vizier Ibrahim Pasa in 1532 to the Caorlin’'s,a Venetian jeweller family. Suleyman the Magnificent wanted to wear an imperial crown lke the Westerners to show his supremacy lover the European rulers. In Fact, sources indicate that the sultan wore this crown in a cere ‘mony that was also attended by the Habsburg ambassadors in Nis before the 1532 campaign * There were even illustrated maps in Europe with the portrait ofthe Sultan. For example, Battista [Agnese, the Venetian cartographer, placed a portrait exactly in the center of the map of Anatolia showing Suleyman sitting on his throne The conquests and personal life of the Sultan were the source of inspiration for many literary works, ballets and operas in Europe after the six- teenth century. Not only the sultan himself, but his wife Hurrem Sultan (Roxelana) and his Grand Vizier Ibrahim Pasa were also included in plays and librettos, As early as 1581 Gabriel 1. Europe and te Otani at ls nn Bounin, the Srench author, wrote a tragedy called Lo Sultana, which treats the theme of the ‘murder of the Sultan’s son Prince Mustafa.

In fact, itis believed that such a series reached Stance during the Mediterranean cam= jaign of Admiral Barbarossa in 1543. These portraits must have been given by Barbarossa {0 Virginio Orsini, the French admiral, Paolo Giovio, the Italian historian and collectr, who col- lected the portraits of the famous people of the period at his vila in Coma, wanted to add the Ottoman portraits to his collection and hearing that Orsini had these portraits, he borrowed them from him and had them copied, Later, several copies were made from this sees in oil and became widely spread in Europe. Copies of the Giovio series are found at the Uffizi Museum in Florence and in the collection at the Ambras chateau of the Tirolian Archduke Ferdinand Il, The portraits in the Giavio collection also copied by Tobias Stimmer, the Swiss artist, and the woodcut prints were published in Giovio's book Elogia Virorum Bellco Virtute dustrum. Al of these portraits are in the bust form and were drawn in 3/4 profile. In some of ‘the portraits there are similarities to the Petancius series mentioned above. This brings to mind ‘hat Nigar originals were probably inspired by a European portrait series All f these indi cate that the cultural exchange between Europe and the Ot:aman Empl during the period of Stleyman was more intensive than it was thought to be. In any case, there are many sources stating the deep interest of oath the Sultan and his Grand Vizier, Damat Ibrahim Pasa in European culture and art, For examale, the bronze statues of mythological figures brought from Budapest by Grand Vizier Ibrahim Pasa after the Hungarian campaign were erected at the Sultanahmet Square and remained here for a perid of time. Art and diplomatic relations ‘An interesting example of the cultural exchange with Europe is the order placed by Sokollu Mehmed Pasa through Niccolo Barbarigo, she Venetian batio at the Sublime Porte, dung the reign of Sultan Murad Ill Sultan Murad Ill and his Grand Viale Sokollu Mehmed Pasa commis Sioned Seyyid Lokman Asui, the sehnemeci official court poet who wrote dynastic history) of the period and Osman, the famous miniature artist to prepare a book containing the informa- tion related to all of the Ottoman sultans and their portraits, Sokal, wha must have seen the iustrated dynastic histories in Europe, wished to have a manuscript similar to these produced, However, in order nat to make 2 mistake in the images of the previous sultans, re thought that it would be prover to refer tothe sultan portraits in Europe. In particular, Sokollu Mehmed Pasa, ‘who heard that such a series existed in Venice, asked the Venetian balio to have these brought to Istanbul, When it wae realized that a complete series was not available in Venice, the Venetian senate commissioned these portraits from the atelier of the well-known art Veronese, These oil gortaits, painted after the already existing printed portraits, reached Istanbul in 1573 and most of them are sill kept at the Topkap Palace Museum Seyyid Lokman, in the inttoduction to this manuscript eritled Semaitname (Description of a person's features), indicates that they referred to the European sultan portraits, Nakkas Osman, who painted the portraits, must have used the Veronese series that came to the palace. However, he also referred to historical texts, studied the authentic costumes of the previous Sultans kept at the palace or in their mausolea and then drew the portraits ofthe twelve Ottaman sultans from Sultan Osman through Sultan Murad Il Osman did not use the bust form in these portraits. The sultans sit with their knees bent as in the portrait of the Mehmed Il by Siblzade, hoiding handkerchief or a flower in their hands in the Eastern tradition, However, their common fea~ ture with the European portraits is the 3/4 profile model, In this manuscript, painter Osman oc deta intrmatin about the erat in te Giowo caestin see King ar sand Sinan Aorta ot Twa Otoman Corsa ro the “aarbtossa Coleen of Paso iowa” verevee Drei ei, 22 de arimo congressontesnananae sare Isomice 912.1 1988 ea © Grate (Veit, 1989), 47°59; Bethy "Paolo Govan Doge sve OsmanSutan Porte (Paola Gow interest im the Ofent an he Ottoman sultan potas Aptioh ‘ara gn YaiaEssoys in Honour of Aah Kiran, 65.¢ Kafesong wand Tye Senora story 583), 149-16), in addon" te comectins eeween ine Nigerian Gwa Sees ee) Raby From Europe to ftenbu,” The Salon Para, 8)= 750 4 An 6 Yagil robo, 58 4 Far the ernese series ports ee Te Suton Pano, oe ‘15— The painting showing te Virgin Mary in the skies of istanbul, which was painted to commemorate the return of the Austrian King Ferdinana’s Ambassador Kuefstein 1 his country.

They also painted the sultan and his family, various Ottoman costumes and interesting scenes from daily life, These paint- ings are exhibited at the chateau belonging to the Kuefstein Perchtoldsdorf Museum in Vienna. Among the paintings at the chateau, the full-ength or- yily at Grifenstein and at the tral of Sultan Murad IV and his mother Késem Sultan, a weir, a pasa and a Janissary are of Interest. Even more noteworthy is the oll painting showing the Virgin Mary in the skies of Istanbul, no doubt symbolizing an Istanbul under her patranage.”” Jn 1B41, the French amlassador Jean de la Haye was sent to Istanbul to renew the capitu- lations. George de la Chapelle, an artist accompanying him, painted mostly the women in the Ottoman Empire and printed them in 1648 in his book called Receu! de divers portraits de prin cipales dames dela Porte du grand ture. The portraits of Sultan Ibrahim and Sultan Murad IV are placed on the frst page of the book In the background of George ae fa Chapelle's figures are scenery fram Istanbul documenting various districts of the city Many Euronean ambassadors came to istanbul during the second half of the seventeenth century.

Some af the European ambassadors visiting the Ottoman capital city personally collected information related to the Ottoman Empire and published books. Sir Paul Rycaut, the English ‘ambassador who came to Istaroul between 1661 and 1668, wrate a book called The Histary of the resent State of the Ottaman Empire about the governmental organization and daily life in the Empire ana published it in London in 1668 with engravings of Ottoman costumes he had drawn in Turkey, The aovtralt of Mehmed IV, the veigning sultan, is also included in his book. In Subsequent years Rycaut’s book Was printed in many languages. For example, the French trans: lation of te book was published under the ttle of Recueil dle diverse figures turques, and it con tained Sebastian Im Clere's engravings of Rycaut’s drawings and also additional engravings based cn ather sources.” ‘The ambassadors sent by the Ortomans to the European capital cities also had 2 share in the cultural relations with the Europeans. Most of these wrote sefaretnames (report written by an Ottoman ambassador on his offical work, experiences and observations} describing what ‘they saw in those foreign countries The visits of the Ottoman emoassy delegations to Europe aroused great interest. For example, the visit to Fontainebleau oF the Ottoman embassy de'e- gation sent to France in 1607 was received with great interest and a few years lat wore Turkisn castumes in the ballet called Bollet de Monseigneur le duc de Vendosme, staged in 1610" The visit of Ambassodar Suleyman Aga, sent in 1669 by Sultan Mehmed IV to King Louls, XIV was even more influential and after ths, Turkish castumes started to be worn at the masted balls organized at the court. Moliére, the renowned glaywright of the period, added a Turkish ceremony t0 the play called Le Bourgeois Gentilhomame and Suleyman Aga was desicted as 2 comical character. There were dancers in Turkish costumes in ths play staged in 1670.

Lotard, who was known in Europe became as peintre ture, made portraits of many Eurepeans with Turkish costumes after he returned from Istanbul” The new relations between the Ottomans and the Europesrs in the eighteenth century brought many diplomats, merchants, ravers and artists te the Ottoman capital. With the rowing interest in history and archaeology inthis century, cllecting antiques and curiosities ita reached it height and many travelers came to the Otioman Empire for research. Arnong these there were architects and painters. The market for travel accounts with engravings grew in Europe. Consequenty, most ofthe artists working in embassy ctces, even the ambassadors themseives often produced such illustrated books. For exemple, architect Cornelius Loos, who accompanied the Swedish King Charles XIl in 1710, made such detailed drawings of the various districts and important monuments in Istanbul, that many buildings which no longer exist today, are documented by nis drawings” Baron Gudenus, a military draftsman, accompanying ‘he Austrian ambassador Cort Ulfeld to Istanbul in 1740, drew a panorama of the city, which stllis ane of the most important documentary sources about Istanbul at that time and specif- ically its vernacular architecture Sir Robert Aisle, tre English Ambassador appointed to Istanbul between 1776-1794, was aso an antique collector, and he nad employed Luigi Maye an artist of tain origin, to make drawings ofthe historical buildings” The succeeding Enlish “Ambassador Lard lain commissioned M.

As mentioned befor, tone ofthe most important reforms inthe Ottoman Empire, was the arival ofthe printing press after the visits of ambassadors Mehmed Celeb’ and Said Efendi in Paris In 1726 Said Efendi had Ibrahim Muteferrika establish the printing press and started the printing of Turkish books, The first book printed was Nehmed Efend'’s dictionary known 3s Varkulu Lugati and the second was Katip Celeb's ihonnuma" All ofthese elations also brought inrovations to eighteenth century Ottoman architecture Many books and objects of European origin had already reached the palace. Besides various aifts, engravings, plans and architectural drawings were brought from France by Mehmed Celebi and Said Efendi.

The Sadabad Palace, which started bo be constructed at the Golden Horn in 1722, with is springs, fountains and cascades, could val the French palaces This palace drew the attention of all the travelers throughout the century and the palace and its gardens were compared to Versailles. No doubt, the European influence on Ottoman architecture increased even more afte the Tulio Period However, the traces of the haroque and rococo styles prevalent in Europe, appeares! mainly in aicitectural decoration, For example, the painted decoration in the pavilions added to the Topkapi Palace by Sultan Ahmed Il, cisplay vases with flowers andor bows filled with fruit. The floral matifs usecin previaus centuries raw attained a more voluminous aopeararce, For example, on the fountain of Sultan Ahmed Il the same matifs are carved in high reli Similar reliefs are encountered at ather foustains and sebib, After the Tulip Period there were changes in the decorative program and landscape compositions painted on the walls replaced vases with flawers or stil ies «tural drawings, most of which were related to the "732 Sultan Musafa Il receiving the Swedish Ambassador UlicCelsng, Celsing Manor, Sweden, There were na major alterations in mosque architecture, More accurately, the plans did nat Change, but on the exterior facades, daors and windows, on the niches and mimbars in the nte- ‘ior curving motifs in the baroque and racoco styles, seashelis and cartouches are encountered The Nuru-u Osmaniye Mosque [1748-1755) 's the only example among the mosques. which shows the European influence structurally with its courtyard in the shape of a horseshoe.

The subjects were also changed. The miniatures with Fistorical theres laced by stories with alight content, scenes from dally life, portraits and floral compositions.

The Ottomans, who had established permanent embassies in Europe after Sultan Selim Il, improved their diplomatic and commercial relations. Especially after the 1839 Tanzimat Firman [Noble Reforrn Script), it's observed that Europeans and non-Muslims became influential in commercial and cultural life in the Ottoman capital city and the major cities in the provinces. All the European styles were now adapted, both in architecture and in the art of painting, The palaces constructed in Istanbul one after the other such as the Dolmabatice, Beylerbeyi, Gdksu, Cradan and Vildz, which the sultans wished ta see as the sym- bols of westernization, ate quite different from the traditioal palaces. These buildings display an eclectic style, a blend of the neo-baroque, neo-classical or even neo-gothc styles in the nineteenth century European architecture, These palaces were composed of various quarters Topkapi Palace where pavilions are collected around courtyards. These palaces are marked by their monumental gates and intersive decoration on ther fagades. Their interiors are dazzling with gilded reliefs, carved wooden and cartan-pierre decorations, panoramic Wall paintings, European-made furniture and porcelains The Ot:oman elite, who adopted westernization, used the same styles and dec rations in the mansions they builtin the capital city and the provinces Even though the plans in mosque architecture stil did not change, the mosque entrances were now similar to the European palaces and wider windows, European style capitals were used as at the Dolmavatce, Ortaktiy, Aksaray Valide and Yildiz Hamidiye mosques in Istanbul, Wall paintings decorating late nineteenth century buildings favored romantic landscapes or hunting scenes, Similar to the works of the European Orientalist painters While westernization was becaming a lifestyle in the Ortoman palace cieles and the elite class throughout the nineteenth century: for the Europeans, the exatic and navel layin the East. This was reflected in the wave of arientaism, which spread in France, England, Germany, Austria and Italy. Actually, orientalism, which is @ concept created by Europe nourished by imperialism ‘and colonialism as a result of the industrial revolution, has manufactured an exatic, mystical, “Oriental” image filed with unknowns® In ar=it developed together with the romantic move- iment and it was frst observed in the field of romantic literature. The "Oriental" image created by the heroes of the storie, novels or plays were most often an Ottoman image. Such images found in the works of authars such as Lord Byron and Vietor Hugo in the first raf ofthe nine- teenth century also influenced other tranches of art For example, Byron, in nis book called Childe Harale's Pilgrimage, narrates his hero's journey to the east. Actually, this can be ident ‘ied with Byron's own journey in 1809. The oriental image created by Byron in this book is a strong but merciless, ysterious character, The oriental heroes in Byror's Turkish Tales are also similar#® These are often the merciless male characters for whom women oecome slaves. Infact, E Delacroix, the farnous French artist, who was inspired by Byran, in t's painting called the Death of Sardanapal shows his hero together with the women of his harem who do not aban don him at the moment of disaster. Byron, who was a quest at Ali Pass's palace in Yannina assumed an attitude against the Ottomans after the murder of the Ottoman Paga in 1822 and actually died during the Greek war of independence, Delacroix’ painting called Massacre in (Chios w2s also derived fram Byron. Ibis evident that the romantic authors wanted to show the Ottomans as “oriental” and “different’ Especially after the 1827 Navarino defeat, they saw the Ottomans as @ state that had lost its political ower. Vietor Hugo, in his ook called Les Orientales, exalts the Greek war of independence. Moreover, iti interesting ta note that the European orientalists were disappointed at the Ottoman westemization, because the western ized Ottoman image did not fit the concept of the “Oriental” they had created.

Operas of the European composers were staged at the Yili2 Palace theater. The Ottoman palace and the Ottoman capital had ‘become an imporzant center for European culture and art as well® ‘A look at the European-Ottoman relations throughout the centuries clearly indicates that the cultural relations stayed firmly behind political and economic developments, Among the Islamic communities, the Turks have always had the closest relations with the Western Christian world. The way these relations were reflected in art and culture from the fifteenth century up until the present shows variations according to political aliances, victories and defeats, diplomatic relations, and even the personalities of the art patrons. While in the eatli- cer years the Turkish image in Europe carried an exoticism brought by the unknown, for the Europeans in the sixteenth century, the Ottoman Empire was a state administered by power ful rulers, having great politica significance for Europe. In this connection, the powerful rulers cof this empire, the pompous ceremonies ofthe Ottoman court and the elabarate Ottoman cos~ umes were reflected in European art, No doubt, the unique topography and interesting mea- ‘uments of Istanbul, the capital city ofthe empite, were drawn by almost every artist, HOWever, during these centuries the European-Ottoman cultural relations preserved their unilateral character. More accurately, a profound European influence was nat encountered in the Ottoman culture and art until the eighteenth century. However, after the eighteenth century, both the Ottomans and the Europeans attempted to become more closely scquainted with ech other under equal terms and have been even more inspired from each other. The European influence penetrating into Turkish art in parallel with the Turauerie fashion devel ‘oping in Europe is a conerete indicator af these relations, The politica! balances in the nine teenth century pushed the Ottomans into an intensive westerizatio” and the European cul- ture was much more influential. It is a fact that Ottoman-European cultural interactions developing throughout history have cantrieuted a rich cantent to both European and Ottoman art and indicate that different cultures can create powerful syntheses. °c.
