"Aga" is a woodcut print created by Christoph Krieger in 1598. This print features a detailed portrait of a man in traditional Ottoman attire, including a turban, a long, patterned robe, and a feathered headdress. The artwork is framed within an ornate, decorative border composed of swirling scrolls and fantastical creatures, adding a touch of whimsy to the composition. The use of linework to create the image is typical of woodcut printing, and this piece is a valuable historical record of Ottoman fashion during the late 16th century.
