Default Orhan Pamuk on Bellini's Portrait of an Ottaman Sultan

Orhan Pamuk the Turkish novelist has a fine essay in the Guardian about a portrait of the Ottoman Ruler Mehmed II which Gentile Bellini painted back in the Renaissance. This is a must read for those who enjoy one artist's meditations on the work of another.

(That should read "Ottoman" in the thread title. Unfortunately I can't edit the title to fix the typo.)
