THE TAPESTRY AT THE CERRALBO MUSEUM The Cerralbo Museum was originally a palace, built in the 19th century by the Marquis of Cerralbo, established as both a family residence and a gallery in which to exhibit their collection. The Marquis donated his palace, along with its collections, to Patrimonio Nacional. Due to poor conditions, some pieces had to be removed from their original location within the palace. This was the case for this verdure tapestry which could be found hanging as a curtain ‘in order to create a dark and romantic atmosphere’. The Instituto del Patrimonio Cultural de España commissioned Factum Arte to make a facsimile that would hang in the tapestry’s original location. The project was divided into five steps: -Cleaning the original tapestry at the Real Fábrica de Tapices.

It has been accepted for inclusion in Textile Society of America Symposium Proceedings by an authorized administrator of DigitalCommons@University of Nebraska - Lincoln. Velvet and Patronage: The Origin and Historical Background of Ottoman and Italian Velvets Dr. Sumiyo Okumura Velvets are one of the most luxurious textile materials and were frequently used in furnishings and costumes in the Middle East, Europe and Asia in the fifteenth to sixteenth centuries. Owing to many valuable studies on Ottoman and Italian velvets as well as Chinese and Byzantine velvets, we have learned the techniques and designs of velvet weaves, and how they were consumed. However, it is not well-known where and when velvets were started to be woven. The study will shed light on this question and focus on the origin, the historical background and development of velvet weaving, examining historical sources together with material evidence.

  • Language Use in the Ottoman Empire and Its Problems
    LANGUAGE USE IN THE OTTOMAN EMPIRE AND ITS PROBLEMS (1299-1923) by Yelda Saydam Dissertation submitted in fulfilment of the requirements for the degree M. Phil. in the Faculty of Humanities (Department of Greek and Centre for Islamic Studies) at the University of Johannesburg Supervisor: Prof. B. Hendrickx Co-supervisor: Dr A. Dockrat Johannesburg 2006/7 Abstract The Ottoman Empire, an imperial power that existed from 1299 to 1923, was one of the largest empires to rule the borders of the Mediterranean Sea. Ottoman Turkish was used especially between the 16th and 19th centuries during the Ottoman Empire. This ornamented, artificial language separated the general population from intellectual and palace elite and a communication problem followed. Although the minorities of the Ottoman Empire were free to use their language amongst themselves, if they needed to communicate with the government they had to use Ottoman Turkish. This thesis explains these language differences and the resulting problems they created during the Empire. Examples of original correspondence are used to highlight the communication differences and the difficulties that ensured. From this study, the author concludes that Ottoman Turkish was not a separate language from Turkish; instead, it was a variation of Turkish in inexistence for approximately 600 years. I Preface My family and I came to South Africa from Turkey during August 2002 for my husband’s sabbatical as a post-doctoral fellow at University of The Witwatersrand. We both took a years leave from our jobs when we came to South Africa. I was working for Havva Özişbakan High School in İzmir, Turkey as a Turkish Language and Literature teacher.

    Identifying Woven Textiles 1750–1950 DATS in partnership with the V&A 1 Identifying Woven Textiles 1750–1950 This information pack has been produced to accompany two one-day workshops taught by Katy Wigley (Director, School of Textiles) and Mary Schoeser (Hon. V&A Senior Research Fellow), held at the V&A Clothworkers’ Centre on 19 April and 17 May 2018. The workshops are produced in collaboration between DATS and the V&A. The purpose of the workshops is to enable participants to improve the documentation and interpretation of collections and make them accessible to the widest audience. Participants will have the chance to study objects at first hand to help increase their confidence in identifying woven textile materials and techniques. This information pack is intended as a means of sharing the knowledge communicated in the workshops with colleagues and the wider public and is also intended as a stand-alone guide for basic weave identification.

  • Venetian Silk Textiles and Fashion Trends in the Ottoman Empire During the Early Modern Period
    Venetian Silk Textiles and Fashion Trends in the Ottoman Empire during the Early Modern Period Miki IIDA This essay presents the relation between the production of silk textiles in Venice and the change in fashion in the Ottoman Empire during the Early Modern Period. Venice was of great interest to several 20th-century scholars, both Italian and foreign, who examined the most important issues in its economic history. Indeed, Venetian historiography reflects more general cultural tendencies. The Republic of Venice was seen as a great Mediterranean power that had achieved a position of preeminence until the 16th century, and later followed a path of inevitable decline that was finally completed in 1797. Venice was a victim of the negative view regarding the entire Mediterranean, according to which, after the rise of the Ottomans and the great discoveries culminating in Columbus’s enterprises in America, the whole region rapidly entered into a dramatic and irreversible crisis caused by the emergence of the Atlantic powers1. In fact, after 1618, Venice faced many crises such as the European economic slump of the 1620s’, the war with Persia, and the Thirty Year’s war in Europe. Venice also suffered from the famine of 1628-29 and the plague following it in 1629-31. Merchants from Marseilles began to invade the markets of Alexandria and Istanbul, taking over a large portion of the cotton and silk trade previously monopolized by Venice2. However, facing these crises, the Republic of Venice transformed its economic structure from that based on long-distance trade into a system based on landed revenue and some export- oriented industries by which the Republic could avoid going into drastic and irreversible economic declines.

  • The Textile Elements in Ottoman Miniatures
    International Journal of Science Culture and Sport (IntJSCS) July 2015 : Special Issue 3 ISSN : 2148-1148 Doi : 10.14486/IJSCS313 The Textile Elements in Ottoman Miniatures Kevser Gürcan YARDIMCI Mimar Sinan Fine Arts University, TURKEY, Email: [email protected] Abstract With the value given to the art and the artist, high quality works of art in many fields were produced in the Ottoman Era. The art of weaving also lived its brightest period in terms of color, design, and weaving techniques in the Ottoman Empire in XVI. Century. The weaving products shaped the lifestyles of the people in those times and received great interest in the Palace as well. Silk woven fabrics had become such a great power in those times that it became the greatest symbol showing the power of the Ottoman Empire to the foreigners, and the determiner of the social standing within the society. The Ottoman Sultans used their clothing, which they made to become flamboyant with embroideries, to distinguish themselves from the public, and make them accept their power. Among the presents that were presented to the Sultans, clothes, kaftans, and similar fabrics as well as other precious presents, were frequent. The miniature manuscripts that were produced in the Palace are in the quality of unique documents that transfer yesterday’s knowledge to the modern age. It is easy to decode the dimensions of the clothing habits, decoration elements and hierarchy concepts of the Ottoman Era, as well as the weaving activities by using the miniature manuscripts. On the other hand, these elements constitute a rich alphabet in transferring the emotional structure of the society in those times, the traditions and habits to our world today.
