Animated Tughra Mahmud II showing the structure of the calligraphy.

The tughra reads: "Mahmud Han bin Abdulhamid muzaffer daima" ("Mahmud Khan son of Abdulhamid is forever victorious").

Not all of the lines are colored throughout the animation. These lines were added only for decorative purposes. Some of the lines can depending on the interpretation be seen as a name, but some are only for decorative purposes to fill some empty space between other lines.

See Image:Tugra Mahmuds II.png for a non-animated, high resolution version or Image:Tughra Mahmud II.svg for the vector data.
