Navy Tulip with Muraqqa
This artwork was made with a muraqqa technique.
Murakka is a type of traditional art created by gluing various artworks on top of each other on cardboard. In this example, the artist has combined three different ebru styles: battal (stone pattern), çiçek (floral) and basic (zemin), all designed to complement one another. The artist has used the battal ebru style to create the outer frame of this work, which is one of the basic patterns and is widely used in marbling, and the kumlu ebru style to create the inner frame, which is usually applied as a thin sill, drawn on the edges of the flowered marbling. The rose, a distinguished floral pattern in marbling, is the focal point of this work of art. The rose motif is well-known as a symbol of the prophet Muhammad (Peace be upon him).

Papermarbling (Ebru) Blue Tulip Decoration
Floral Marbling Blue Tulip Decoration
Before it ever touched wood, this flower was born on water.
Drops of color were placed gently onto a still surface, floating freely, guided only by patience and practiced hands. With each careful movement, the colors listened, stretched, and finally bloomed into a floral form—never rushed, never forced.
This is the nature of Blue Tulip Ebru: a moment that cannot be repeated. Once the pattern appears, it exists only once in time.
The finished marbling is then joined with natural wood, giving the fleeting beauty of water a lasting home. The wood grounds the design, while the flowing lines of the flower remind us of its origin—fluid, calm, and alive.
What you see is not just decoration, but a meeting of elements:
water and earth, movement and stillness, tradition and time.
No two flowers are ever the same. Just like moments, each one is singular, and once made, impossible to recreate.

Passage of Judges
This work, which depicts Ottoman tents and the collective passage of state officials, is an elegant continuation of the miniature tradition that reflects the Ottoman Empire’s rich cultural heritage. The state officials and their assistants are brought to life in this exquisite illustration scene depicted with extraordinary detail, wearing the traditional clothes they wore at the time. This work can be regarded as a historical source because of the clothes, accessories, and ornaments depicted on the horses, which are based on sources describing that period. In addition to the traditional Ottoman miniature techniques, the artist’s mastery of illumination art techniques such as halkar, scanning, and geometry is evident. Sarısaman paper was used for the work, which is more than 100 years old and is one of the first editions of the Lausanne legislation book written in Ottoman Turkish. The artist’s goal in this piece was to present this 100-year-old paper as a work of art to be displayed by painting on it with Turkish miniature art in combination with tezhip techniques, depicting some of the cultural features of Ottoman civilisation.
Peace
Initially, the calligrapher, Fuat Basar, wrote this Allah on the cardboard and the illuminator, Sema Yurtseven, has uniquely designed and applied this harmonious and coherent illumination art. In the original artwork, real gold is used for the yellow parts you see here.
