Abstract

The most important issue in the field of international portrait research is whether a portrait is official or private. This question also presents the answers to the questions of which emperor or empress the portrait belongs to or which emperor or empress was inspired by. Thus, this important issue is an important factor guiding us in the definition and dating of the work we are dealing with. In this article, which I dealt with according to the criteria of international portrait research, the male head which dealt with by Buschor in 1949 and 1971 and was also handled by Inan Rosenbaum in 1966, has emerged two different definitions and dating dates. The female head has been studied by Inan in 1974 and Inan-Rosenbaum in 1979 and later, it has been examined by many researchers, including Fejfer and Güven and a different definition and dating has been made by each researcher. Therefore, in this paper prepared with the concern of finding answers to the questions mentioned above, I will try to make a new interpretation about male and female heads on which there are disagreements about definition and dating.
