Notlar	Mehmed Esad Yesari was one of the most prominent calligraphers of the Ottoman Empire. Taʿlīq script, originally in Iran, was found a new form in his hands according to the Turkish aesthetic. He had developed his style by selecting the most exquisite calligraphies of Imad and contributed to the formation of the Turkish taʿlīq style. There are works of Mehmed Esad Yesari in private collections and museums as well as on many architectural structures and aiming stones in Istanbul. These epitaphs are significant pieces of art regarding the development of the calligrapher and the taʿlīq script in the Ottoman Empire. These inscriptions, which belong to the buildings built during the reign of Abdulhamid I (1774-1789) and Selim III (1789-1807), are dated to a period of thirty years between 1179 -1210 Hijri. They appear in different buildings of both religious and civil arthitecture. Among these structures, there are mosques, madrasas, fountains, libraries, palaces, pavilions, imarets, and aiming stones. Our article aims to examine the epitaphs of Mehmed Esad Yesari as a whole found on seventeen different buildings and aiming stones in Istanbul, which have been spotted so far.
