Özet
It has been known that hanging up the miniature portraits of the rulers on the neck or attaching them to the collar has been an expression of obedience to the ruler for the aristocrats or court members. In 16th Century, this tradition was popular at English and French courts. Later it expanded and was used for different purposes. At the beginning of the 19th Century, rulers of Eastern Muslim states such as Qajars in Iran and the Ottomans adopted this western tradition, and they delivered these miniature portraits as an order for state officials and upper classes personalities. In this article, we have dealt with portraited orders of Qajar rulers of Iran in 19th century. They have been evaluated according to subject, style and iconography. Finally, we have discussed their relations with surrounding cultures. In the first part of the study, early examples of the Tudor dynasty in England are presented. Afterwards, examples of Feth Ali Shah, Muhammed Shah and Nasreddin Shah periods were examined and the distinguishing features of these portraits were analyzed.
