Iznik Tile
Turkey; Western Anatolia
17th c.
ceramic; glazed fritware, blue and turquoise on white ground
25.5cm square approx.

There is a closely related panel of tiles in the Victoria and Albert Museum, ref.70/1898. The style and colour palette is reminiscent of the interior walls of the Yeni Valide Cami in Istanbul which was completed in 1663.
