In the 18th century, Ottoman painting was increasingly influenced by art from Europe, as can be seen in the landscape background of this depiction of an Ethiopian woman. Fadil-i Enderunis Book of Women, written in the last decades of the 18th century, ostensibly deals with the merits and defects of respectable women from all over the world. It is, however, largely erotically oriented, something that one might suspect from the depiction of this exceedingly 'exotic' lady.

A Turkish beauty in sheer semi-transparent veil and traditional costume.

Irezumi (れ墨, 墨, 紋身, 刺花, 剳青, 黥 or 刺青) is a Japanese word that refers to the insertion of ink under the skin to leave a permanent, usually decorative mark; a form of tattooing. The word can be written in several ways, each with slightly different connotations. The most common way of writing irezumi is with the Chinese characters れ墨 or 墨, literally meaning to 'insert ink'. The characters 紋身 (also pronounced bunshin) suggest 'decorating the body'. 剳青 is more esoteric, being written with the characters for 'stay' or 'remain' and 'blue' or 'green', and probably refers to the appearance of the main shading ink under the skin. 黥 (meaning 'tattooing') is rarely used, and the characters 刺青 combine the meanings 'pierce', 'stab', or 'prick', and 'blue' or 'green', referring to the traditional Japanese method of tattooing by hand.
