Mustapha Aga
Appearance
Kozbekçi Mustafa Ağa, known as Mustapha Aga in Sweden, was an Ottoman ambassador to the Swedish court in 1727. One of his missions was to obtain a repayment of a royal debt which had been incurred by Charles XII of Sweden, but he failed in his mission.[1] He was painted smoking nargile by George Engelhardt Schroeder (1684–1750).[2]
He was succeeded by Yirmisekizzade Mehmed Said Efendi in his role as ambassador.[2]
