| Embassy with the king's musketeers |
Sultan Achmet/Ahmet III sent his ambassador Mehmed Effendi
to the French court of king Louis XV in 1720-21AD.
There are several outstanding iconographic sources showing the embassy and ceremonies in Paris in March 1721, with the splendorous attired soldiers and courtiers, their horse tack, horses and ceremonial of the Ottoman embassy.
.
. The painting by Charles Parrocel , master painter of equestrian form and beauty, shows the splendors of the Ottoman horsemanship and wonderful horses and their splendid horse tack.
enjoy
