Hello, everyone! Nice to see you again!
In spite of the teachings of Islam, portraiture was nevertheless popular in the Ottoman Empire. As an example, there are many portraits of sultans and beautiful women from their harems. They were painted by famous and not very famous artists, which can be seen in museums and private collections all over the world. Let's look and imagine how mothers, wives and daughters of the sultans of the Ottoman Empire really looked like in real life. We have successfully brought to life their portraits with the help of artificial intelligence.
Enjoy watching.

Portrait of Mahidevran Sultan is false. Mahidevran Sultan was the prettiest woman of Ottoman Empire, as said by historians. She had ivory/pearl like white skin, large green eyes and blonde hair. Her beauty was incomparable. Portrait of hurrem sultan is also fake. She had flaming red hair and deep blue eyes.
I was thinking the same, glad you make the point.
I agree, Mahidevran beauty is umderstated!
And Mihrimah Sultan's portrai is fake, too.
Mahidevran was really beautiful that's true, but not the prettiest woman in Ottoman Empire. Safiye Sultan said ''Nurbanu is the most beautiful woman I have seen in my life'' and she wasn't even that young anymore when Safiye Sultan saw her. Mihrimah Sultan is called ''the Sultan of Sun and Moon'' (her name also means sun and moon) its said that her face is ''like a moon'' and REALLY pretty.
@@ddivinosa that's true. All the Sultanas were extremely beautiful undoubtedly but Mahidevran Sultan's features were detailed in such a way that it seems to be the most prettiest woman of Ottoman Empire. Mahidevran itself means "the most beautiful in all". Also she was called Gulabhar( meaning rose of the spring) Mahidevran by Sultan Suleiman.
Perhaps the reason why the Ottoman Empire's history is so interesting and cryptic is because how private and secretive they were concerning royalty. Men weren't allowed to look at the sultanas, nobody outside the harem. So the paintings are probably based on the descriptions that servants could have given the painters.
Not only men painted lol
There were female painters that time around as well
@@danimotherofchickens479 oh please... quit it.
@@ahmadsuleman2334 ooohhh shut up. this is what happens when u listen to women.... look how sstupid the world had gone.. and IM A WOMAN USING A MALE ACCOUNT!!! geez...
I think it's more about painting itself it was considered a forbidden and evil act it wasn't allowed on there lands that's why all paintings of them were made by description and after a while of their deaths and that's why they didn't even allow women painters to enter the hareem
i am turkish and to our historians and historical records, mahidevran sultan was more beautiful than hurrem sultan. so, suleiman didn't fall in love with hurrem because of her beauty. it was her character. hurrem sultan was cheerful woman, she was very intelligent and she was good dancer/musician. and the letters they wrote to each other show that they have a special bond. for suleyman, hurrem was a source of joy. that's why when hurrem died, he banned music in the palace and had the gold items in his room removed. and nurbanu sultan was very beautiful woman. the first thing to mention when talking about her is her beauty. besides among the sultanas in the ottoman empire, my favorite is Turhan Sultan. although her name is not as well known as hürrem or kösem , she is a woman who has worked for the state all her life. she ended the rule of kösem sultan and ended the women's reign. if she wanted, she could be like kösem, she had enough power for this, but she put the interests of the state above her own. she is literally the mother of the state.
Nurbanu sultanı canlandıran Merve Boluğur da çok iyi bir seçim olmuş bence, o dönemde ve o dizi de aşırı güzeldi
Nur Banu signifie quoi exactement ? Car de ce que j'ai compris on donner un nouveau nom selon son caractère ou apparence
@@user-gd4fv5tk6t “Dame de Lumière”
The magnificent.sultan sulam.great history.
I think in Hurrems case I think it was a case of two soul mates meeting. They wrote poetry to each other so they both shared an artistic side. They were both smart in Hurrem maybe he found someone that fill that need to be totally understood. Just guessing.
People need to understand that none of the women from that era were allowed to be seen by anyone outside of harem, yet alone men. So even if they were painted they were just described by servants. No painter has ever actually see a sultan. You can research this. Also, that era had a particular style of painting bodies and faces. That’s why most of the sultanas look alike, with small features changed, like hair color.
There were female painters too
@@saptaparnadas4089 in that era? Are u crazy xD especially for harem jobs, hell no.
@@vvmew766 no no.. There were female painters who used to draw pictures of queens, princesses, concubines... They were educated in harem tooo
@@saptaparnadas4089 maybe, I don’t quite think so tho, they had language (speaking / writing) lessons, singing, dancing and instruments. Never heard painting mentioned. Even if they did, none of those drawings were saved anyways, so the looks of sultanas will always remain mystery.
i think youre right. i wander if they were able to meet the male siblings of these create and re-imagine them in female form ...maybe that coupled with a description or sketch from a palace maid or something.
I feel like they are made to look a bit more prettier than they actually were according to modern times. Edit: why are ya'll mad at this lmao. They clearly didn't look like that with the smokey eye and stuff. I never said they were not beautiful. I said they were modified to look pretty according to today's time. They were pretty back then too, but if they showed the same face maybe we won't find them the most beautiful women because beauty standards have changed jeez.
Seriosly like seriously are you kidding me
@Arif Hurrem sultan-lutherian(Ukraine) Nurbanu sultan-venician(Italy) Safye sultan(Albanian) Kosem sultan(Greek) Turhan sultan (Russian)
@Arif and also Halime sultan(azerbejian) Handan sultan(bosnian)
Don't forget, that only the most attractice women were taken to harem.
@@nielubieinceli Yes but people back then definitely looked different than how people look now.
This painting of Hurrem Sultan used in this video is painted very late - 18th Century where as she lived during 16th century. Her original picture can be seen in wikipedia. This was also recently auctioned in US. It is said that she was strickingly beautiful.
I saw this paintig when I googled Kösem Sultan 🤣 Also this painting of Mahidevran hatun is of Kösem.
I thought they mix up the painting of Hurrem & Safiye.
I have heard Hurrem Sultan was not exactly strikingly beautiful like they say Mahidevran Sultan was, the real beauty about hurrem was her intelligence, her wits and political skills and her red hair.
I heard hurrem wasn't that pretty😅 it was her personallity that was really cheerful and she was supposed to be really seductive
@Arif Would you stop repeating the same thing in every comment!!!😒
As a Turk I can say that in our society Mahidevran, Mihrimah and Nurbanu are known for their beauty. Handan and Turhan are also known for being beautiful.
Hurrem is known as most smart though
How did they define beauty though. I saw a photograph of a 19th century Princess from Arabia once and she was HUGE. Like morbidly obese, huge. She was also considered the most beautiful woman in the world at the time. Now we as a society consider that disgustingly ugly and horrendous. Perceptions throughout history constantly change so to put modern beauty standards to a historical figure isn't always wise. Not to mention these women were only ever seen by other women, their husbands and eunichs. Meaning the paintings aren't necessarily that accurate...
@yitzhak shekkelsteingoldmanberg sadly that's how Asian countries beauty standart. White white and white
@@M.Campbell-Sherwood She was not Arab I understood for what woman you are talking about! She was an Iran princess you know a Persian princess she was of Qajjar Dynasty and yes in Iran facial hair and obese body were considered as beautiful !!!
@@asiminapateraki1680 Ah, yes, thank you :). I think being overweight in those days and further back was considered a sign of status and beauty in most places/worldwide. For a person to be big like that they had to have the money to afford all the food it would take to get to that state. Plus they never really had to do anything to work it off the way the poor in society did. Have you seen any documentaries on the types of fake food cooks would come up with as jokes when sugar was discovered? It was sometime in the late Tudor Dynasty I think, maybe later. They could make sugar bacon, sugar roasts sugar fruit etc. When the diners would bit into their dinner it would be a pure sugar treat. Its not being discovered, through archaeology, that wealthy people of that time period had dental issues. Bodies were being found with lost teeth, cysts of the mouth etc. I can only imagine how quickly that would have made them all gain weight. Especially if they were doing it several times a week.
I think they all look more glamorous than the paintings, but the essence of each portrait was captured really well here. I follow a few youtubers who do art like this based on historical portraits and these are rather exceptional.
Can you mention a few of these youtubers? Im curious now 😅
Damn. No wonder they called her an enchantress. Hurrem Sultana is a beauty that can indeed topple an empire. Goodness.
Looks pretty average in this rendition.
Kosem Sultan was the most controversial, powerful and famous Sultana of Ottoman empire !!!! She is the reason Blue Mosque was created this is why the serial is Kosem and not Ahmed while the other is called only Suleiman The Magnificent !!! 😎
The other one is called magnificent century not suleiman the magnificent and it follows the story of hurrem
@@afellowlimelight372 series in some countries titled suleiman magnificent
@@raditya5663 they both are different 😂
Not most famous. Most famous is Hurrem.
@@afellowlimelight372 The are 2 TV serials Suleiman The Magnificent and the other Kosem Magnificent Century !!!
Mihrimah Sultan, and Turhan Sultan are the only two that actually resemble their portraits. The rest take a lot of let’s say, creative licence.
And you were there in the past to confirm those two. My dear, All of them are renditions..
@@arunbose4877 were you??
@@indigozen4794 you just proved his point that these are renditions genius
Mihrimah was blond with blue eyes
It wasn't Mihrimah's portrait, it was Kösem.
Women being kidnapped, shipped to foreign country, forced to sex slavery in order to survive, living locked up the rest of their lives. Am I the only one here who finds this absolutely horrendous?
@CherryDelRey you missed my point, I'm not surprised, I know that Muslims kidnapped around 2 million people in Europe, slave ships went all the way to Iceland (many recorded cases). I'm surprised how any of the comments doesn’t acknowledge the fact that those women were forced to sex slavery. It was not their own choice.
@CherryDelRey I find your view bit odd, personally like any normal human, I've always been shocked of slavery - any slavery, also the modern slavery e.g. in India or in Dubai. In any post about slavery e.g. in America the comments wouldn't be neutral or positive and quite rightly so. As I pointed out earlier, the comments here don't see any issue or even acknowledge the fact that those women were slaves. The ethnicity of the victims doesn’t justify slavery. Also, find it equally odd that you automatcally assume me being white, as if a none-white person couldn't feel empathy also towards white victims.
@CherryDelRey Actually, I haven’t seen here any critical comments, nor acknowledging the fact that these women were slaves. The comments merely seem to judge and compare the women’s physical appearances. It’s just common sense for any human being to try to make the best of their situation and everyone has a natural will to survive. Your comments regarding the latter marital status of very few of the slaved women seems to me just like a feeble attempt to change the focus of the discussion.
@CherryDelReyI find your answer absurd once again, as I'm clearly not ignoring anything here e.g. slavery of African people. You, on the other hand seem to ignore and deny any wrongdoing in regard to these women. All can says is two wrongs don't make a right.
@CherryDelRey Firstable I'm commenting here this particular video, not all the thousands of other videos. Secondly, I have been very clear that I do condemn strongly any kind of violence and slavery everywhere in the world in the past and in the present.
It's nice to look at them alive virtually, but I don't think this is how they really look like... Especially their eyes.... Since they came from various countries... And if we are going to base their facial features as what is said from the poetries collected from the ottoman era, they would look different from what is shown in this video. Nonetheless, thanks to the creator who made them come to life in this clip. ☺️
Nurbanu is always depicted with dark hair in portraits so I wonder why she has light hair in here? Also considering that Hurrem had red hair, I don’t think Mihrimah’s hair would have been that black
Both of my maternal grandparents had dark hair, yet produced a blond daughter, my aunt. They both had ancestors with fair hair.
Actually if someone is red haired is more probably his/her grandchild to be also redhaired rather than her/his children.
@@Yoruichi_16 It could be that Hürrem was what we call today strawberry blonde, in which case Suliemans' dark genes would be dominant
@@user-ho7mg9ol7w What dark genes? In the sources he is described as light haired (not blonde probably light brown) and blue eyed.
@@suk.489 you're right. No idea what I was looking at early this morning 😆
It tells you what an extreme concept this idea is in Islam of always capturing non-Muslim women for slavery and harems. No other culture has extracted this level of exclusion for itself from reciprocity. The Otttoman Empire scavenged non-Muslim populations for centuries for a very distinct Caucasian beauty and when it finally ended the spectacle of non-Muslim parents that came in the hope of getting their progeny back was as heart-rending as it was epic.

Mahidevran's portrait is wrong.
Plz make ottoman sultans original faces! Like sultan Suleyman, mustafa,mehmed,selim! We really want to see that! ❤️

Yes ottoman sultan before camera invented
Nope..
Ottoman history was sent to Bulgaria after the proclamation of Atatürk's Republic and burned. The Ottomans, who had lands on 3 continents, are known to have ruled an area of 5,200,000 km2 in the best period. He ruled from 1299 to 1922 (or 1302-1922 according to some historians). What a pity that the world should jointly destroy such a history for its own interests. Moreover, even our history books lie and the Ottomans have been circulating from language to language for centuries. The Ottoman Empire is the most honorable empire . We listened to the political games that witnessed that period from the ancestors of our elders. In the Ottoman period, yes, women were very beautiful, they were all carefully selected and cared for, and it was forbidden to see the harem salutation women by men other than their husbands. Only women who serve the harem know this. Likewise, even making a painting of it is a death penalty and you think about the rest. Although the Republic of Turkey is tried to be portrayed as Arab, the only traditions that are common with Arab countries are religious belief and the Qur'an. There is no respect for excessive Islam in Turkey, another love is another to apply one-on-one. Likewise, Sharia is extremism, the people will never accept it, it is another to be free and it is another to be a slave. It's like being good and being the best. We cannot be as good as the Ottomans. This is another way of doing this, 98% of the generalities of some Turks are from the Ottomans.
Me too!!!!
Ottoman Sultana birthplace: 1. Sultana Hafsa: Bakhcyhsarai, Crimea 2. Sultana Mahidevran: Albania or Taman Peninsular, Caucasus 3. Sultana Hurrem: Rohathyn, Ukraine 4. Sultana Mihrimah: Istanbul, Turkey 5. Sultana Nurbanu: Paros, Greece 6. Sultana Safiye: Dukagjin Highland, Albania 7. Sultana Mahfiruze: North Caucasus 8. Sultana Kösem: Isle of Tinos, Greece 9. Sultana Turhan: Kyivan Rus, Ukraine
I thought Mahi was born in Circassia
Mahi is albanian
No, no and no. Hurrem was born in Kingdom of Poland. Not to Ukraine. Rohatyn was in Poland when Hurrem was born, but now the city is in Ukraine.
Nurbanu Born in VENICE
Nurbanu was actually Italian. Kosem was half Greek and half Italian. Mahidevran was also Albanian
It is said that Mahidevran and Nurbanu were the ones who were the most beautiful amongst them.
They were the most average looking ones in this.
wrong!!!!!!! Hurrem is the most beauty. Racist didn't go far. Everyone who become king favorite must be beauty. Second floor is not like any women can stay. Remember it. If she didn't beauty than she won't even have a chance to meet the king not only getting palace from the first place. So stop your racist muslim a$$ on convert anymore.... Use your brain punk...
@@blueshoes5145 As a Turkish historian, I have to say that both paintings are wrong, Nurbanu sultan's is similar at least in general terms, but Mahidevran's is completely wrong Mahidevran is a princess whose paintings are in the archives of Cherkassky and Temrukoğlu so we can roughly know what she looks like and she has shiny blonde long curly hair, very big emerald green beautiful eyes, small nose, milky white and very bright skin, she is also a tall, thin waisted and beautiful body woman
Interesting that the AI made them all look more attractive than the original pic
Hurrem and Kosem were fierce AF
I love how the modern technology can bring back people with a pretty close original form.
Mahidevran outlived all of Suleimans children. One can only imagine how depressing that must have been thru her life.
I LOVE how this is done! Brilliant!!!
Hurrem looks so pretty❤️
Offering appreciation of the art of transformation of the paintings to lifelike CGI imaging, despite what the historical accuracy is, it's still beautiful to see.
Beautiful ladies, and the music sets the scene, i enjoyed this video, very clever work, thank you..
Amazing video! And I really liked the music!
Very interesting. Thank you for doing this. I’ move always thought the artists painted them uglier than they were in person. They had to be stunning beauties as you showed, but their portraits are hideous!
The artists themselves never seen them in real life, only from what people (who supposedly met them) described them. Also, there is no way the Sultan's concubines weren't pretty. So yeah, they all must be (physically) beautiful in their own way
Because they r ugly that y painting is like that Even though they r the pretiest of their land🤭
These beautiful women had tough lives,! Weren't many of them kidnapped from their birth families, taken from their native lands and made into slaves and forced to convert to Islam? I know it was a different time in history, but wow traumatic indeed!
In the Ottoman Empire, the strong ones of the foreign men were made soldiers and the others were made civil servants. If there had been a kidnapping as you said, the Ottoman Empire would not have ruled the European lands for centuries. In addition, they did not enslave and exploit the nations in the lands they conquered, such as Europe
ALL powerful nations, tribes, peoples enslaved others in all the world. Enslaving is bad and it still exists.
Fantastic, thank you for your wonderful work 🌹
I like a lot this video! Thank you a lot for sharing! 😊
Hahahaha, in real life, Mihrimah looked exactly like her mother with red hair, and Sultan Selim had red hair too like his mother , up to today.. Mihrimah Sultan (Daughter of Suleiman the Magnificent) is still the most powerful and richest princess in Ottoman history
Какие же они все красавицы)) Османская империя брала для себя только самое лучшее.
I don't have words to describe this magnifiency work. Truly amazing. BRILLIANT.
Perfect work! History comes to life!
Hurrem, nurbanu, safiye, kosem y turhan eran muy parecidas entre si al parecer el gusto se hereda. Porque los sultanes escogieron esposas muy parecidas fisicamente. Aunque se dice que las de los retratos no eran las verdaderas sultanas.
Yes,that's right.The portraits were painted according to the description.Because strange men were not allowed to see the wives and princesses of the sultans.But the woman looked very much like the pictures,like today's identikit
Exacto, solo nos podemos basar en lo que se contaba de ellas, es decir los comentarios y comparaciones que hacian concubinas y hasta sultanas... Por lo que se dice, la belleza de Mahidevran y Nurbanu fueron las que más destacan en cuanto apariencia, ya eran increíblemente hermosas. En cambio Hurrem no era tan hermosa, pero era exótica en un tiempo que abundaba las mujeres rubias y pelinegras o castañas, dicen que ella era un poco pequeña, de cabello rojizo y piel de porcelana. Pero la verdad se ganó a todos por su carisma y alegría 😌
Im sorry then the painter should have been fired ! Even i could have done a better job. These woman look 👀 horrible in these paintings 🖼 Im gonna paint 🎨 myself so no one dares paint me ugly when im gone. This shit should be an insult for real 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Lies again? AIA Money
@Kranky. K! The Ottoman Empire was very bizarre,the wives of the sultans were slaves,the elite troops were slaves and the officials up to the grand vesir( chansellor) were slaves.
I read the comments about "beauty" of certain women and I want to say few facts: 1. Someone being beautiful or not is the matter of times. What they saw as beauty then, can for many be not beautiful today. Just a reminder because many people keeps forgetting about it. 😅 2. What is beautiful is a matter of country/regions. So if, for example, Mahidevran was closer to the beauty standard of Ottomans country and Hurrem was more "European beauty" then it's high possibility that historians from Ottomans country would wrote that one is prettier than another. But it can be just a matter of that. We never really can say about facts if it comes to telling about someone's opinion. 😂 3. Paintings - this one's or others - were kinda like photoshop back then. It is not like we truly know how someone's looked like. We know how they wanted to be seen or how the painter boosted their beauty (or ugliness) by trying to fit them a bit more with current beauty standards or showing on the painting things that weren't really fitting in the beauty standards. Anyway it's a really interesting subject if it comes about portraits - especially if it comes to people with high social status and currently ruling ones. 🤗 So basically us talking about who was more beautiful is just really silly because we really can't fully say how those people were looking and it's just so subjective opinion. 🤪
Thank you ☺️ for caring for Turkish ottoman history and sharing
I wish they had the costume of their time period as well and kept the distinct facial features that made them beautiful in their culture back then. Thank you for sharing -USA:)
Hürrem and Safiya and Mihrimah were the prettiest .. make such a thing for sultans tok
In history, Mahidevran and Nurbano were most beautiful.
I got really interested in the history of Hürrem and the harem in 2014. I read a lot, I watched the show. I truly believe these women were probably the most beautiful in the world. What amazing lives too. Amazing to see these renditions. I also want to add that Suleyman’s sister, Hatice (pronounced Hadija), was portrayed as a very beautiful woman. Also, Kosem was portrayed as a blonde, green eyed Greek in the show.
It is known that Sultan hatice wasnt beautiful at all , but for kosem alot said she was one of the prettiest and so is sultan ( mihrimah ) the daughter of sultan sulieman . They said everyone spoke of her beauty and even people across the sea’s heard of her beauty . I love the series and their history and everything about them
I mean, the series is basically a fictionalization. There’s a lot of truth in there, but I’m fairly sure the actors were chosen for skill as an actor, not historically accurate looks. All the paintings I have seen of Kosem are dark haired. The series treated history the way Disney did with Pocahontas. Major plot points accurate, but not how you cram for an test.
You only assume painters to be men
Magnificent Century and Magnificent Century: Kosem while having a BIT of history in them, is largely fictionalized drama. I've also read that the reason why Kosem was viewed as beautiful was largely due to the fact that she was slender and had dark hair and eyes that complimented her fair skin.
@yitzhak shekkelsteingoldmanberg Why not? Kosem's first actress Anastasia is both blonde and Greek so ...
Very good job equator! I'm from Greece. Kosem has stollen my heart !!!
love this channel .. thank you
I love this video, congratulations. I'm learning English, sorry for can't say more.
Ojalá hubiesen tenido en cuenta sobre todo los cánones estéticos de la época en vez de los actuales. De ese modo en vez de esforzarse en adaptar cada retrato al ideal de belleza actual, nos habrían permitido ver cómo era el ideal de belleza de entonces. Por ejemplo, la mayoría de los retratos reales muestrab mejillas muy planas y mandíbulas poco pronunciadas y disimuladas por grasa subcutánea, incluso algo que hoy en día llamaríamos papadita. Habéis "corregido" este "defecto" en todas hasta habéis maquillado los ojos según la moda de esta década. Estoy segura de que si los retratistas pusieron caras extralargas, triangulares y con un poco de papadita fue porque las elegidas por bellas las tenían y el retratista quiso acentuar esos rasgos aún más es sus retratos. Ojalá se hubieran parecido lo más posible a sus respectivos retratos sin que les hubierais hecho bichectomía, liposucción e infiltraciones de hialurónico.
Cierto....La I.A. tan publicitada, ha fracasado en lo principal....la comparación entre retrato y foto deben parecerse....incluso fabricandoles las ropas y adornos de la época.... Una lastima....!
Thank you SO much!!! :)
Congratulations, nice work!
The women in Turkey are really beautiful anyway so I can see how beautiful the women must have been, and the men! So many mixes from neighbouring countries. Stunning times! Thank u. Xx
The turks in Anatolia are mixed with Greek,kurds,armenian,Georgian,Pontus,and other this is why they look like this
@@Satsuma-tm8ep Turks are not mixes of kurds or georgians or pontus people, First of all kurds only live in eastern anatolia so they can't affect all the population. Same goes for georgians and pontus people, they all lived in their own area. One last thing is that at first kurds were alawi's(a different sect) then selim the grim killed all the alawi kurds and replaced them with sunni kurds. Why im telling you is because muslims from different sect's don't marry, atleast not in numbers that could affect you.
@@nadirhikmetkuleli7335 totally bull. Sunni islam was the most important thing for the selim the grim and he did killed them and replaced them with sunni kurds. Also kurdsnare irani people and they were alawis just like iranians
Omg I love this and history thank you for this video I'm new here 😊
Very beautiful and stunning Great job
Hello, my family is one of the oldest in the Ottoman Empire and we belonged to the Ottoman nobility, if you saw pictures of my sisters you would be captivated by their beauty. Very nice video, greetings
Wow where can we see it, I’m so curious to how they look
MashaAllah MashaAllah all of them is so beautiful
I think the first thing that came to mind for me was how the AI Mahidevran was the spitting image of the actress that plays Gulnihal in Magnificent Century. After that, seems like apple did not fall far from the tree as if the AI is correct, Selim fell for a redhead just like his father did.
I didnt expect Mahidevran to have been this beautiful! Loved her. Anyway, all of them were very beautiful. And, although most people believe that painters couldnt literally see them, be sure there were many occasions when they could actually be seen. The paintings themselves wouldnt exist if the Sultan didnt allow it.
shes supposed to be the prettiest one. her name literally means beauty of the times.
it is said that mahidevran had beautiful emerald green eyes. the word mahidevran itself mean eternal beauty
The video was just amazing, outstanding and any kind of praise will be less to describe how good the video was !!! I really like the video and I want another video on 'THE MUGHAL EMPIRE' , I really want to see how the Kings of the Mughal Dynasty looked like , please make a video on it using AI technology just like this video 😇😇
Sohom Ganguly I love Mughals. Interesting empire! A great empire founded by Turks, Mongols and Indians. It was the first state to unite the geography of India. A powerful state founded and enlarged by the grandchildren of Timur Khan. But the rest of the dynasty members are in bad shape now! Many members of the dynasty were executed in palaces when the Empire was invaded while it was weakened by Britain. Some were exiled to Burma. The last remaining noble princess in India is trying to survive by selling pancakes to support her family.
@@tatangatatanga5551 But mughals were not the first to unite India.

At the same time, because they were not a warlike society like the Turks and Mongols, another could not gain superiority over another Indian kingdom. The biggest factor in this merger.

Beautiful all of them 😍😍😍
very poetic images! I like them. Hurrem had very intelligent eyes, - that`s for sure.
This is like watching Magnificent Century all over again, but without all the drama & intrigue.
This is the most accurate we can ever get because the painters never really saw them and second it makes sense based from their ethnic background
Not really as these images are based on the paintings.
I don’t think so, the portraits make them look so white... I think they would be fair but more with golden skin like middle easterners are but this makes them all look so European. In paintings most of them has olive skin
@@ahiatskarks1770 there are many white looking turks
@@ahiatskarks1770 Not all of them were from the area.
@@SeaDemon25 yeah but common, they all didn't look European.
The Sultanate of Women began with a Russian lady (Hurrem aka Roxelana) and ended with a Russian lady (Turhan). It is sort of irresistible to be proud of being Russian for that reason.
There is no exact evidence that Hurrem is from Russia, many say that she is from Rohathyn Ukraine. Although who knows?!🤔
Hurrem is Ukrainian not Russian
Hatice Turhan Sultan is not russian shes romanian
Wasn’t Hürrem's birthplace part of the Kingdom of Poland at the time she was born? In any case she was Polish.
@@philae05 No one knows for sure because she was picked up as a slave, so details are sketchy. But it was likely that where she was born would've been Poland at the time but later became part of the Ukraine, so dual nationality
The mahfiruze hatun they showed with AI and the mehfiruze they have casted in the series I have to say perfect selection 👌
They have been given jawlines and cheekbones that did not exist, even in the paintings. Double chins all left out.

And what I heard about her, she was prettier than Hurrem. Eventhough I love Hurrem too
@@tralala9677 beauty is not everything mahidevran life proved it. She died alone
@@comradeleppi2000 thats veeeeeery true, totaly agree, but can we just fulfill our curiosity😀
@@comradeleppi2000 well, it's not like she had many choices... :(
@@comradeleppi2000 she lived a life, without getting cursed and destroying other people. The magneficient century has portrayed her as a bad person, to justify hurrem. However she was nice and people use to love amd respect her
great work!!
The background music is also hypnotising as the girls ❤️❤️
These pics are based on description which the painter has gathered. Though Ottoman Empire lasted for long period but the golden period was up to Sultan Suleiman. The reason of decline the empire was also Suleiman as he killed Mustafa at the instance of Hurrem Sultan. Though this guy is called magnificent but he is the root cause of decline.
The roots cause is not any one person. Egoism, greed, paranoia, and corruption would destroy ANY empire.
Don't learn history from dramas.
Şehzade Mustafa'nın ölümü bir faciadir.
the actress who plays mahidevran is movie - she is incredible beautiful
Beautiful! Just beautiful! Can you tall me what is the music. Perfect compliment! Stunning!!! 😍
Its always a pleasure seeing hurrem given some attention
The one painting describing Mihrimah is actually not her painting. It's some other woman. Mihrimah resembled her mother in looks.
Grear efforts most beautyfull womens in the earth 🥰😍
Very cool video. Thanks.
Really nice...but the ottoman features are very distinct defined and chiseled out. They were outstandingly beautiful. Here they been soften out somewhat. But good video nonetheless. Thank you for sharing, love the music🙏💕🥰🙏✨
Que hermosas mujeres!!! Ojalá también lo hayan sido en Espíritu para con sus habitantes. Felicidades desde la Ciudad de México 🇲🇽
A palace painter would always make their painting of a monarch more beautiful than the real person. That's just 101.
Yes, otherwise the painter would get his "paint brush" chopped off!
well these weren't painted by palace painters. no sultan in the ottoman empire was. we don't know what they look like apart from general descriptions of their appearances by servants and such.
Ask Holbein
is amaizing how you create such beautiful womens from horribles portraits, you are a magician
in my opinion,Sultan Suleiman Khan,was appreciated how beautiful and clever Hurrem was when princess Isabelle ask who gifted the mirror to Sultan Suleiman Khan,He told that it was gifted by her Hurrem,her one and only beautiful hurrem in the whole world.
Wow, that's amazing!
Sultana Hafsa : Crimean Tatar Mahidevran Hatun : Circassian Sultana Hurrem : Ukranian Sultana Mihrimah : Turkish Sultana Nurbanu : Greek Sultana Safiye: Albania Mahfiruze Hatun: Circassian Sultana Kosem : Greek Sultana Turhan : Russian
Hurrem was Polish and Kosem was Venetian
@@karinanowak7260 Hurrem is ethnically ruthenian. Ruthenian is part of Poland-Lithuania at that time. So, we can say that her ethnicity is ruthenian but her former citizenship is polish
which means all the sultan are of mixed blood, and it gets further and further away from the original Ottoman blood?
@@karinanowak7260 Kosem originally still disputed until now. More historians believed she from Greek and some believes she came from Bosnia.
Nurbanu was Venetian
Thank you❤
They did a really great job of matching the eyes. The noses weren't quite like the photos and I felt that they also made them a bit more prettier than they actually were according to modern times. The cheeks matched in some cases, but the face shape didn't always match. I guess women notice these things more on other women.
It has been recorded that some of the European painters were indeed given the permission to paint portraits of well known female figures.
Personally, I think Nurbanu and Safiya where the best looking. Although if I remember correctly historians say that Mahidevran and Hurrem were the most beatiful.
They look like younger versions of the actors in magnificent century so good enough cool that they move too gives them more life.
Very very well done video.
For me, from what they created, Safiye Sultan is the most beautiful.
Wow, can we have more of it?
Mahidevran was the prettiest of them all. Her name was given by the sultan, “mahidevran gulbahar” means the most beautiful flower of spring.
Beauty is in the eye of beholder, and in AI pictures they are all very beautiful.
Magnificent sufiye sultan 😍😍
Que expectaculo gracias muy bonito
Ottoman Sultana maidens name: 1. Sultana Hurrem: Aleksandra Anastasia Havrilovna Lisowski 2. Mahidevran Hatun: Malhurub Baharay or Rosne Pravane 3. Sultana Nurbanu: Cecilia/Olivia Venier Baffo or Kale Kartanou 4. Sultana Safiye: Sofia Velucci Baffo 5. Mahfiruze Hatun: Eudoxia 6. Sultana Kösem: Anastasia 7. Sultana Turhan: Nadiya or Nadya Tucapsky
They were all gorgeous!!
In most cases I think the AI got the nose/mouth/chin completely wrong. None of those look accurate or even a fraction of accurate to the paintings. The paintings are much more unique and have way more character than the generic AI versions.
Yeah true very few people will get that in the age of Instagram
I also noticed the AI completely removed the double chins when there were double chins in the portraits.
The hairlines are also completely wrong. Seems like it aimed to do a makeover rather than accuracy.
Nice depiction but I don't think I can ever see anybody else as Mahidevran apart from Nur Fettahoglu
Wooooooooo!! Beautiful !!=)
They would have white skin because that was the most sought after skin in those days. That was the standard of beauty. And so “the most beautiful” women (who were sought out by the Sultans) had this quality. Beauty is such a subjective perception though. But I suppose the underlying symmetry of bone structure is what is universally accepted as beautiful. The definition of beauty is so elusive, though. Someone in another comment mentions this when speaking of Suleyman the Magnificent’s wife Hurrem. It was her cheerfulness and great intelligence that also kept him hooked. (He named her Hurrem which means “cheerful” but implies the quality of laughter, too) (Mahidevran means “the revolving moon”…by the way)
