I learned about these beautiful portraits of the Crimean Khans from a Crimean Tatar list-serv I subscribe to. The artist, Yuri Nikitin, has painted the Crimean Khans to a great degree of historical accuracy on stretched leather.
The very long fingers in the portrait are almost as forlorn looking as the eyes. They have a look of resignation to them. Love the owl on top, maybe a symbol?
