EDITORS COMMENTS
This print depicts a significant historical encounter between Zizim (Cem), the brother of Sultan Bayezid II, and King Charles VIII of France. Zizim, who was held captive in France during this time, meets with the powerful French monarch in what can only be imagined as a moment filled with intrigue and political implications. Zizim's presence in France as a pretender to the Ottoman throne adds an extra layer of complexity to this meeting. The drawing from "Misteri del Vaticano" by Franco Mistrali Collection beautifully captures the intensity and significance of this encounter. The image showcases two worlds colliding - that of the Ottoman Empire and that of medieval Europe. It serves as a reminder of how interconnected these empires were during this period, despite their vast differences in culture and power dynamics. The Holbarn Archive has done an exceptional job preserving this piece of history through their photograph. It allows us to delve into the past and witness firsthand one of those rare moments where politics, power struggles, and diplomacy converge. This print is not just a visual representation; it is also an invitation for contemplation about the complexities surrounding international relations throughout history. It prompts us to question how such encounters shaped our world today while appreciating the artistic beauty captured within its frame.
