Nakkaş Sinan Bey (also sometimes referred to as "Sinan Beg", or Sīnan ibn Saʿātī) was an Ottoman court miniature painter who lived in the 15th century during Mehmed II's reign. Trained by a European master Maestro Pavli (Paolo da Ragusa), a critically lauded artist in Venice,[1] Sinan Bey and his later students (such as Şiblizade Ahmed of Bursa) both specialized in Pavli's field — portraiture — a brand new artistic genre in Ottoman history and tradition.[2] Together, they are known for synthesizing Eastern and Western aesthetics with the application of new materials, techniques, and themes from Italian art to represent their native culture.[3][2]
