Notes

Very similar to a tile in the Harvard Art Museums/Arthur M. Sackler Museum Inv. 1985.323

The tile is the same as those around the entrance on the Rüstem Pasha Mosque in Istanbul which was completed in 1561. The Calouste Gulbenkian Collection in Lisbon owns a tile (Inv. no. 1685). See: Queiroz Ribeiro, Maria (2009) Iznik pottery and tiles in the Calouste Gulbenkian collection , Lisbon: Calouste Gulbenkian Foundation, ISBN 978-972-8848-58-3 , page 116 fig. 65. The Lisbon tile is illustrated in Denny, Walter B. (2004) Iznik: the artistry of Ottoman ceramics , London: Thames & Hudson, ISBN 978-0-500-51192-3 , page 210. More info at museum site
