"Caravanserai at Mylasa, Turkey" is a painting by the British artist Richard Dadd (1817–1886), known for his detailed and whimsical works often created during his confinement in psychiatric hospitals. Dadd painted this work after his diagnosis with a form of psychosis, which followed a period of intense work and travel, including a trip to the Middle East that profoundly influenced his art.

The painting depicts a scene at a caravanserai in Mylasa, now known as Milas in modern-day Turkey. Caravanserais were roadside inns where travelers could rest and recover from the day's journey. They were a common feature in the Middle East, Central Asia, and North Africa, providing shelter not only to travelers but also to their animals, and typically featured a courtyard surrounded by sheltered galleries.

In "Caravanserai at Mylasa, Turkey," Dadd captures the architectural and cultural essence of such a place during the 19th century. His attention to detail and use of vibrant colors reflect the exoticism and fascination with the Orient that was prevalent among European artists of the time. The painting is likely to be informed by Dadd's own observations and experiences during his travels, although it is also possible that it was influenced by the Orientalist literature and imagery that was popular in Europe during the Victorian era.

Richard Dadd is best known for his fairy paintings and for the fact that he created much of his work while institutionalized after being declared insane. The murder of his father, which Dadd committed during a delusional episode, led to his confinement. Despite his circumstances, Dadd continued to paint, and his works from this period are characterized by their intricate detail and unique style.

"Caravanserai at Mylasa, Turkey" is part of Dadd's body of work that offers insight into the artist's complex inner world and his fascination with the landscapes and cultures of the East. The painting is an example of Dadd's enduring legacy as an artist who produced an oeuvre of remarkable historical and artistic value under extraordinary personal circumstances.
