It was carried out in a more conscious and systematic way during the period of Sultan Selim III. The influences of this movement were seen in the fields of culture and art as well as social, military and political fields. In this period, the classical rules in the art of book illumination were partially preserved. New practices were made in motif ,color and painting techniques and the materials were used. In addition,the Ottoman artists of the period reinterpreted the rococco and baraques styles with their own artistic views,and they even produced works in the style of ''turkish rococco'' which was called that way by the art historians. The decoration of the work called Divan-i Burhan which is the subject of the article, which is registered with the Treasury Department of Topkapı Palace Museum 918 is one of the pleasant and elegant examples of the rococo style. In addition, the name Reisü’l-Müzehhibân Hâtif Efendi is seen in the colophon. (v.59 a) There is no information about whether he is the artist of this work.
