What has been written so far about Margarethe Morgan, which inspired various paintings, especially the Woman Playing the Saz, by Italian orientalist painter Fausto Zonaro (1854-1929), who served as the court painter of Sultan Abdulhamid II for nearly twenty years, is limited as well as repetitive. Margarethe, who was at the forefront forefront of her relationship with Fehim Pasha, one of the well-known spies of the period of Abdulhamid II, inspired literary works and music as well as painting. It also took place in the foreign press news and articles of the period, but it has been seen that these have not been mentioned in Turkish sources until now. Here, some dating and information have been clarified by making use of them; some contradictions have been revealed. For this, many written and visual materials have been compared and progressed. As a result, in the context of these, the dating of Fausto Zonaro's painting has also changed, and the collectors have commented on a photograph published for the first time; it was understood that Zonaro had copied a painting from a French painter, and questions were raised about whether there could be different Margarethes or different versions of the same paintings. In this context, it has been tried to prepare the ground for new research. 1
