By the 16th century, the Ottoman Empire had come to include territory on the three continents of Asia, Africa and Europe. The wealth that it acquired through conquest filled the coffers of the Ottoman treasury. This treasury, which expanded in size over the period of 600 years, accumulated in Topkapi Palace. After the palace was turned into a museum, the treasures of this collection began to be exhibited in seperate sections. This beautifully illustrated book presents the history, architecture and the marvellous treasury collection of Topkapi Palace.
This is a beautiful softcover book. See less
