Özet

The most important point in the field of international portrait research is the question of whether a portrait is official or private. This question also provides us to answers the questions that to which emperor or empress the portrait discussed belonged or from which emperor or empress the portrait was done by inspiring. this important issue is an important factor guiding us for the identification and dating of the piece. In my paper based on international portrait research criteria, male heads which were obtained from Bursa and its surrounding and recently published by R. Ozgan in 2013 have been reinterpreted and a new suggestion has been tried to be brought by giving justified reasons for both pieces.
