vinylfiberglassgeometric pattern

These two Ottoman tent designs come from those used in 17th century military campaigns. The tents were ornamented inside, with the finest patchwork sewn onto the canvas. If the common soldier slept on the rough, the generals on the other hand, travelled in style, as these splendid tents attest. Many such pieces were captured by the Polish cavalry after the rout at the 2nd siege of Vienna in 1683 where the Ottoman general Kara Mustafa Pasha not only lost the battle and his tent but also his head which was swiftly removed in Belgrade as an admonishment for the disgraceful defeat to the infidels. The most notable examples of these marvellous patchwork designs are in the castle of Cracow where they are among the Polish spoils from their historic victory.
