拍品專文

This firman was written during the short reign of Mustafa IV. He ascended to the throne in May 1807 after the deposition of his cousin Selim but his reign was turbulent and he immediately faced riots by the Janissaries. He was deposed in July 1808 and killed shortly after in November 1808 at the instruction of Mahmud II.
This firman relates to land ownership and was awarded to Shams al-Din Bey to confirm his tenure over various lands in the Morea.
