Turkish sultans, sultanas and other historical figures
1650
From the collection of Victoria and Albert Museum
This print shows a woman’s face inside a round frame. She wears a fancy wig with curls and a feather sticking up. A pearl necklace sits around her neck, and a locket hangs on a chain. The background is plain, but her clothes have detailed patterns. The text below says her name is Eumenia and she was tied to a sultan. The print was made by someone named Friedlein in the late 1600s. If you like this style, look up Friedlein for more prints like this.
