Miniature art is a traditional Turkish painting style characterized by detailed, small-scale illustrations that were often used to accompany manuscripts, especially during the Ottoman period. These paintings depict a wide range of subjects, including historical events, daily life, court scenes, and legendary tales. Unlike Western painting, Turkish miniatures do not focus on perspective or realism but instead prioritize storytelling through symbolic colors, stylized figures, and flat compositions. The art form flourished in palace workshops and was typically created by teams of artists under the guidance of a master. Today, miniature art is celebrated for its historical value and unique aesthetic.
