To The Metropolitan Museum

It's a very nice presentation, but presenting Greek-Roman and Japanese works under their "ethnic" names while presenting Turkish works under "Islamic Art" is hypocritical! As you know, Islam is a religion accepted among many "ethnicities and nations," and a work of art cannot be presented under the name "Islamic" simply because it has "Arabic" writings on it. Works from the Seljuk, Safavid, Kajar, Mamluks (which the name of the state was Ed-Devletü’t-Türkiye)  and Ottoman periods should be presented as "Turkish Art". Because all these works (except for some) are reflecting the culture and art of Turks. All these empires are Turkish Empires and don't be afraid to say "Turkish Art"! Or do you have another hidden agenda?..

*PS: At 7:43 the bowl from Syria is not Kajar or Khazar (because it is not understable, and Khazar is also Turk), but Mamluk, if it is from the 13th c.

No Culture when it Suits You!

 

Metropolitan Müzesi ve Sanat Tarihçilerinin

İkiyüzlülüğü,

Önyargısı,

Politik görüşü,

Propaganda, gerçekler değil ve

Bilinçaltına etkisi!

Not Asia Minor and definitely not Smyrna
it is Türkiye and İzmir
















Metropolitan Müzesi'ne;
Neden Türk Kültürü veya Sanatı olarak sınıflandırmıyorsunuz? Büyük bir aile olduğumuz ve zengin bir kültüre sahip olduğumuz için mi? Yoksa adımızı mı söylemekten korkuyorsunuz? Eserlerin İran, Mısır veya Suriye'den gelmesi de önemli değil. Selçuklular Türk'tür. Kıpçaklar/ Kumanlar/ Memlükler Türk'tür. Yani hepsi Türk Kültürü ve Sanatı'nın içinde yer alır.

Bu arada, başka kültürlere (örneğin Hint, Çin vb.) ait eserlerin kültür gruplarını yazıyorsunuz. Bu ikiyüzlülüğe son veriniz!

*
To Metropolitan Museum;
Why don't you classify it as Turkish Culture or Art? Is it because we are a big family and have a rich culture? Or are you afraid to say our name? It doesn't matter whether the works come from Iran, Egypt, or Syria. The Seljuks are Turks. The Kipchaks/Cumans/Mamluks are Turks. So, they are all within the Turkish Culture and Art.

Meanwhile, the works that belongs to other cultures (e.g., India, China, etc.) are being written.
Stop this Hypocrisy, and write Turkish Culture and Art !

Prejudiced,

Political,

Propaganda, not facts, and

Subconsicious influence

of Metropolitan Museum and Art Historians!

SB

PS. And they are not the only museum with hypocrisy!..

Türk Sanatı ve Kültürü - Turkish Art & Culture



Memluklar Dönemi, Kupa - 12.yy , 
Suriye veya Mısır, British Müzesi
Büyük bir ihtimalle Haçlı Seferleri sırasında Fransa'ya getirilmiş.

"Palmer Cup" olarak adlandırılmış olup "İslam Sanatı" altında sunuluyor!...Halbuki "Türk Sanatı" altında sunulmalı, tıpkı diğer milletlere ait olanları millet adıyla sundukları gibi... Hiç, Hıristiyanlık döneminde yapılmış sanat eserlerini, herhangi bir yerde, "Hristiyan Sanatı" kategorisi altında gördük mü?..Hayır..



A leader in the "Turkish sitting position"
Glass Beaker, 12th c AD
Mamluk Kipchak Turks. Egypt or Syria, British Museum.

Probably was brought to France during the Crusades. It's called "The Palmer Cup" and presented under "Islamic Art"! ... However, it should be presented under "Turkish Art" just like they presented those who belong to other nations.. Have you ever seen, artworks made in the Christian period, under the category of "Christian Art"?..No..

Long-Necked Bottle - 12th-13th century
Seljuk-Atabeg Period - from İran

Everything till here is a correct info, but then the info goes as "Culture: Persian" !
This is typical Turkish Art, and not Persian! So, it must be registered as "Turkish Culture". 
And then you call yourself "Harvard"... 
May I ask, from where, which respect do you deserve? 

Seljuks and Atabegs are the Turks.
One of the 24 Oghuz (Oğuz) Turks is Kınık (reading as Kynyk) Tribe, and they are the founder of the 
Seljuk Dynasty/Empire in İran and Turkey.

Atabegs are experienced statesmen, their job was to educate the Seljuk princes, to be a commander, 
about governing and as counsel to the Seljuk princes.

Atabeg (Tr.etym.); 
Ata = Ancestor, Father.
Beg (Bey) = Gentleman, Sir, Mister.

@Metropoltian Museum, when it comes to other cultures, you write the culture name, but when it comes to Turks, it is "uncultured".. and only the Ottoman period is categorized as Turkish culture.! We are a big family, which you can't ignore; for instance Seljuks, non of them are listed as Turkish culture!.. Shame on you...SB.

More in Metropolitan Museum without culture name, without mention the "Turkish Culture & Art"!
Seljuk Turks , Mirror with a Pair of Addorsed Sphinxes with Scorpion Tails , is Turkish Culture & Art ! 
Seljuk Turks, Hexagonal Tile Ensemble with Sphinx, is Turkish Culture & Art ! 
Seljuk Turks, Bowl with a Majlis Scene by a Pond, is Turkish Culture & Art ! 

Other mistake! :
Are you also playing with the kids mind Metropolitan Museum? Syria? Turkey? Which one is it?
Daphne is the Roman name given to Antioch (Hatay today), and it is in modern Turkey, and not modern Syria!

Shame on you British Museum ! This is "Not İslamic Culture",  
İt is "Turkish Culture & Art", I condemn you!
Seljuk Period. Horasan (Khorasan) was the center of Seljuk Turks,
which comes from an Oghuz tribe: Kınık!

Title (object): The Vaso Vescovali
Description: A lidded bowl of high tin bronze, engraved and inlaid with silver. Decorated with signs of the zodiac, the sun and the moon, it displays a complex astrological imagery. It has twelve roundels, each containing the personification of a planet with the sign of the zodiac representing its day or night house. The figure drawing water from a well is Saturn in his night house Aquarius. The figure riding a ram is Mars in his night house Aries. The eight roundels on the lid contain personifications of the planets, including the dragon 'Jawzahr' who represents the lunar eclipse. Each figure has six arms with which to carry the emblems of their magical influences.
Culture/period : Middle Islamic (!!!) 
Date: 1200 (circa)
Production place: Made in: Khurasan
The Trustees of the British Museum !


















If the European and the other states museums exhibited the art of; Safavids, Avshar, Kipchak, Mamluk, Avars, Huns, Seljuks, Ottomans, Akkoyunlu (White Sheep Turkomans), Artuqids, Kachars, Babur (Mughal), Delhi, Zengids, Khazars, Karakoyunlu (Black Sheep Turkomans), Anatolian Principalities and the art of more I can not remember, which belongs to a lot of Turkish tribes and states; and more art which are under the category of Islamic Arts, but those who belongs to the Turks; if these arts comes under the "Turkish Culture & Art", Europeans shall have a problem, like getting hot :) On top of that, if we add the other Turkish states like; Azerbaijan, Kazakh, Kyrgyz, Turkmen, Uzbek, Uyghurs, Sakha (Yakuts), Khakassia and others, plus the Turks from BC times like; Sacae (Scythians) art, and of course more tribes from BC times; all of these brings a huge Turkish Culture, that shall give the Europeans a culture shock and they will faced "a sick Europeans, in terms of culture and art"... Do you have an aspirin?... 

Why did I say that? Artifacts in these museum in the names of tribes, which the citizens don't know that their ethnic is Turkish; "Turks". Some of these artifacts are in Persian and some don't have a culture "ethnic" name. And some are under the "İslamic Category" listed, which, the religion is spread among different ethnics/states (like Arabs!). What they are doing is completely wrong and I call as "discrimination" against the Turks and other Turkish tribes.

SB.


Safavi, Avşar, Kıpçak, Memluk, Avar, Hun, Selçuk, Osmanlı, Akkoyunlu, Artuklu, Kaçar, Babür, Zengi, Hazar, Karakoyunlu, Beylikler ve daha hatırlayamadığım bir çok Türk boylarının ve devletlerinin sanatı ile İslam Sanatı altında gösterilen, ama Türklere ait olan sanat eserlerini, Avrupa ve diğer ülkelerin müzeleri "Türk Kültürü ve Sanatı" altında sergilerlerse, Avrupalılara sıcak basar ve dudakları uçuklar :) Üstüne diğer Türk devletleri; Azerbaycan, Kazak, Kırgız, Türkmen, Özbek, Türkistan, Uygur, Yakut, Hakasya, v.s. ile MÖ dönemi Türklerini, Sakalar gibi, de eklersek .. Çok büyük bir kültür açığa çıkar, ki "Kültür ve Sanat açısından Hasta bir Avrupa" ile karşı karşıya kalırız... Aspirin var mı?... 

Müzelerdeki sanat eserlerine boy adları konuluyor, ama halk onların Türk olduklarını bilmiyor. Hatta bazılarına Pers, bazılarına da hiçbir etnik adı yazmıyorlar. Bazılarını da İslam kategorisi altında sunuyorlar. Bu yaptıkları tamamen yanlıştır ve buna "ayrımcılık" denir.





How do you call yourself "scholars", "museums" ?
Are you all anti-Turk?...
This is a crime against the  "Culture of Turks", more then that,
This is an"Ethnic-Hate-Crime"
I condemn you all!..
