Pattern Description
“The Sultan’s Council” design portrays the Ottoman court’s assembly of wisdom and justice.
At the center sits the Sultan on his throne, surrounded by high officials, envoys, and courtiers, some kneeling and some standing.
In the background, trees and foliage add vitality and movement, while mounted figures symbolize the order and continuity of the empire beyond the palace walls.

The dark blue background—rarely used in Ottoman miniatures—creates a striking depth and night-like effect, allowing the figures and colors to stand out vividly.
Each brushstroke embodies Ottoman order, intellect, and refined artistry.
Inspired by Matrakçı Nasuh’s classical palace miniatures, this design radiates historical elegance when displayed on a wall.
