Abstract

Nakkaş Hasan Pasha was one of the most important artists of 16th and 17th century Ottoman miniature art. Information about his life is limited. Especially his statesmanship can be traced in historical sources. Nakkaş Hasan was educated in Enderun and served in the Harem-i Hümâyun. He reached the position of Beylerbeylik and vizier. Nakkaş Hasan, who was a member of Nakkaş Osman's working team during the reign of Murad III (1574-1595), when Nakkaş Osman shaped Ottoman depiction, contributed to around twenty works until the early 1600s. Depicting campaigns, wars and struggles, the miniatures offer rich cultural content. In Nakkaş Hasan's works, there are many examples of miniatures on war and campaigns. The depictions are based on the narratives in the texts and reflected with a realistic understanding. The figures of clothing, headdresses, architectural structures and natural elements shed light on the mentality of the period. Nakkaş Hasan adopted a simple narrative in his works and avoided unnecessary detail and surface decoration. He prioritized the understanding of storytelling. He paid attention to compositional principles such as layout, color balance, fullness and space ratios as well as the depiction of the content. In this respect, his works have integrity in terms of form and content. Studies have been conducted on the general characteristics of Nakkaş Hasan miniatures; however, this study examines the miniatures gathered around a theme from the general Nakkaş Hasan miniatures together and reveals the way the painter handled the subject in terms of content and form.
