Tughra del sultano Süleyman il Magnifico

Turchia, Istanbul

Not on view

La firma ufficiale (tughra), elevata a forma d’arte raffinata presso la corte ottomana, era il sigillo del sultano Süleyman il Magnifico (r. 1520-66). Presente su tutti gli editti reali, questa firma stilizzata è un’elaborata composizione calligrafica che contiene il nome e i titoli del sultano, il nome paterno e la frase “eternamente vincitore”. I segni calligrafici decisi contrastano con la delicata miniatura che ritrae una sinuosa pianta rampicante, decorazione del sigillo. La firma qui riportata fungeva da intestazione per un documento lungo e stretto in forma di rotolo e la prima riga conserva ancora i caratteri in oro.
