Description (auto translated): The portrait of Mehmet, the Vizir kâhyasi (lieutenant) of the Grand Vizier, shows him wearing a green fur-lined caftan and a matching turban at his post. Originally vezir kâhyasi was the personal attendant, or majordomo, the grand vizier, a feature that was independent of government affairs. The function developed in the course of time to personal adviser to the grand vizier and later even as Secretary of the Interior in the Imperial Council. c. 1727 - c. 1730 medium: H 34.5 cm x W 27.5 cm * whole: w 1.2 kg
