ABOUT THIS PIECE Renaissance Painter Gentile Bellini's The Sultan Mehmet II was created in 1480 and the painting is in National Portrait Gallery London. The original size of the work is 69,9 × 52,1 cm and is made of oil on canvas. The majority of those portraits were painted in the traditional profile view, but here Gentile has shown the Sultan’s face and body turned slightly towards the viewer, a new fashion in Venice. Although the painting is quite damaged we can still see many meticulous details, like the embroidered cloth hanging over the marble ledge, its many gems and pearls a sign of wealth and magnificence. To further glorify the Sultan, Gentile included three golden crowns on either side of the arch – probably intended to represent Greece, Trebizond and Asia, which Mehmet ruled. The Artist: Gentile Bellini (c. 1429 - 1507) was an Italian painter of the school of Venice. He came from Venice's leading family of painters, and at least in the early part of his career was more highly regarded than his younger brother Giovanni Bellini, the reverse of the case today.
