Istanbul: Sakip Sabanci Müzesi, 2014. Soft cover. New. 4to - over 9¾ - 12" tall. Paperback. Pbo. 4to. (27 x 23 cm). In Turkish. [375] p. Color and b/w ills. "Sabanci University's Sakip Sabanci Museum is hosting an exhibition entitled "Distant Neighbor, Close Memories: 600 Years of Turkish-Polish Relations" in celebration of the 600th anniversary of relations between Turkey and Poland. "Commercial and cultural relations between Poland and Ottoman Turkey, which began in the 15th century and reached their zenith in the 17th and 18th centuries, made major contributions to the arts in both countries, in particular influencing the tastes, dress and way of life of the Polish elite. Since a relationship going back 600 years could not be represented by material from Poland alone, we were obliged to find a contemporary Ottoman equivalent for every object brought from that country," Sabanci Museum Director Dr. Nazan Ölcer recently said. The exhibition covers a period beginning in the first half of the 15th century and continuing with trade, peace and war up to the late 17th century, when the Second Siege of Vienna became a turning point not just in relations between Ottoman Turkey and Poland, but also in the history of Europe. Among the documents, paintings and other objects in the exhibition are an oil portrait of Hürrem Sultan, the favorite wife of Sultan Süleyman the Magnificent, and the letter she wrote to King Sigismund Augustus; portraits of King Jan III Sobieski of Poland, remembered for his accomplishments in the first and second battles of Hotim (Chocim) and the Siege of Vienna, and members of his family; and a treatise on the Islamic faith written by the Polish born Wojciech Bobowski (Ali Ufki Bey, 1610-85), Ottoman government interpreter and musicologist".
