Abdullah Bukhari (active between 1725 and 1750) was one of the most famous Turkish painters of the XVIII century, specializing in floral albums, and in female portraits. He was the court painter for the sultan Ahmed III (reigning between 1703 and 1730), during the period referred to as “Tulip Era”, for the habit of court members and rich individuals of spending enormous sums of money even for a single rare tulip bulb. 41x28 cm 47x33 cm with frame
