Identical tiles are to be found in the tomb of Sultan Selim II at Ayasofya, completed in 1574-75, (Atasoy, Nurhan and Raby, Julian: Iznik The Pottery of Ottoman Turkey, London, 1989, p.233, Fig.413). A panel of four examples was sold at Sotheby's, London, 13 April 1988, lot 341. The note to that lot cited additional tiles from this series in the Victoria and Albert Museum, London and the Benaki Museum, Athens (No. 97).
