Tiles of this series are identifiable in the decoration of the Topkapi Saray Palace, including in the Hirka-i Saadet and the library of Ahmed I. A small number of related tiles have recently appeared on the art market. One of these was sold in these Rooms, 7 April 2011, lot 312; a further sold in Sotheby's, 13 April 2000, lot 111. A further example sold in these Rooms, 27 April 2004, lot 209.
