From the Land of the Ottoman
Sultans
The Ottoman dynasty which started with its founder Osman Gazi in
1281 was in power for over 600 years. Not only is their empire one
of the world’s long-lasting, in its prime it was also one
of the largest. The sultans ruled over vast territories in the three
continents of Asia, Europe and Africa. Aside from being the centre
of government, the Topkapi Palace, which was the residence of the
Ottoman Sultans for about 400 years, was also the centre of art
and culture. From the land of the Ottoman Sultans is published in
conjunction with the exhibition of the same name at the Asian Civilisation
Museum, Singapore. |
