Eyeglass Case - Portrait of an European Gentleman
Portrait of a European Gentleman in Turkish Dress
This European gentleman is wearing an ottoman costume consisting of a typical colored kaftan. He has a turban on his head and leans on a cane. Turquerie-the fashion for all things Turkish started in the late sixteenth century and lasted well into the nineteenth, as a product of European fantasies about the luxuries of the Orient.
