Illustration of a Janissary's uniform, drawing by John Heaviside Clark, included in Thomas McLean's The Military Costume of Turkey. Illustrated by a Series of Engravings, from Drawings Made on the Spot, plate 5, 1818.
This image of an early 19th-century Janissary was dedicated to, and presumably done at the behest of, Antonaki Ramadani, an Ottoman diplomat in the United Kingdom representing the Sublime Porte at the court of the British royals.
