Habit of the Commander in Chief of the Spahis in 1749

by Thomas Jefferys

This beautifully engraved artwork, dated 1749, from Thomas Jefferys is a unique insight into the hierarchy of the Ottoman army in the mid-18th century.

The engraving depicts the habit of the commander in chief of the Spahis, which was an elite body of horsemen belonging to the Sultan. It can be viewed as a primary source since it represents the combination of practical armors and elaborate textiles in the dress style of the Ottoman military forces. Thomas Jefferys was a distinguished geographer and engraver for King George III and famous for his accuracy.
