The artist, who lived between 1842 and 1910, was an archaeologist, educator and museologist as well as a painter. Osman Hamdi Bey went to Paris to study law, but abandoned this education and started to study painting at the Paris School of Fine Arts (Ecole des Beaux-Arts). Osman Hamdi Bey returned home in 1869 with the knowledge and equipment he had acquired, and was a pioneer in the establishment of the Sanayi-i Nefise School, now known as Mimar Sinan Fine Arts University. He was the director of the Museum-i Hümayûn (Istanbul Archaeological Museum) for many years and greatly expanded the Museum's collection. He started excavations at the tumulus of Mount Nemrut and the Temple of Hecate in Lagina. His most important archaeological excavation was the excavation of the king's cemetery in Sayda (Sidon, Lebanon).
