Life, art and works of calligrapher İsmail Hakkı Altunbezer

This study is about the life, art, artifacts and talents of İsmail Hakkı Altunbezer, who was originally born in Trabzon in 1873. İsmail Hakkı Altunbezer, after moving from Trabzon to Istanbul together with his family, has met with famous calligraphers in Istanbul and has been successful in the short time of the hüsn-i hat line thanks to the basic line education he received from his father. Particularly from Sâmi Efendi, he has become 'the first tughrakesh' in Dîvân-ı Humayûn by taking celî sülüs, dîvânî and celî dîvânî lessons. It has easily created its own stacks thanks to its painting ability. Altunbezer, who is also interested in the art of illumination, has taken rococo style as a guide except for classical style, so the works in the field of illumination have not found the demand. In this work, as far as İsmail Altunbezer's work is concerned, by giving his works. In addition, we have tried to take a few examples from his short biographies and works by his teachers and the students he has trained.
