THE SULTAN’S WORLD: The Ottoman Orient in Renaissance Art

THE SULTAN’S WORLD: The Ottoman Orient in Renaissance Art
The exhibition focuses on the power of attraction which the Ottoman Empire exercises on Western artists such as Bellini, Dürer, Memling and Tintoretto. They were inspired by the Ottoman culture and the pomp and circumstance of the courtly life of the sultans. The mutual fascination brought about a never before seen cultural exchange between East and West.
