The first image in the diptych features a woman adorned in traditional Turkish attire. Her elaborate costume, complete with intricate embroidery and ornate jewelry, reflects the rich textile heritage and the sartorial elegance prevalent among women in the Ottoman society. The woman's poised demeanor and the detailed depiction of her attire provide valuable insights into the fashion and cultural norms of the period.
