When Murad III died in 1595 and his son Mehmet won the struggle for the throne, Mehmet (now Mehmet III) killed all 19 of his younger half-brothers. The practice wasn&#8217;t only allowed, it was explicitly encouraged by the founder of the dynasty, but previously most princes had died in battle or were old enough to be a threat to the successful prince. Mehmet III not only set a record for fratricide, he killed all of his brothers, down to the newborns. The public outcry put an end to the practice.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Length:<\/strong> 71 cm<\/p>\n<p><strong>Width:<\/strong> 78.5 cm<\/p>\n<p><strong>Copyright:<\/strong> \u00a9 Victoria and Albert Museum, London 2017.
