This portrait possibly shows a diplomat in the Ottoman Empire. His rich attire and long moustache ape the magnificent dress of a Sultan.

The sitter's outfit is not only culturally significant but also luxurious. The fur used to trim his jacket, and the feather (likely that of an Ostrich) upon his headdress display great wealth and well-travelled lifestyle.
