Among them shāhnāma-writers or encomiasts such as Ma’ālī, Kāshifī, Hamīdī and Qabūlī, proved that they were prolific servants through their shāhnāmas and panegyrics. Although the less known Riyāzī-i Samarqandī, did not write a book like his contemporaries Ma’ālī and Kāshifī in shāhnāma genre, he tried to construct an image for his patron Mehmed the Conqueror by means of his Persian epistle. In this article, I will try to investigate an unknown encomiast of Mehmed the Conqueror and his attempts to construct an image for his generous patron.  </span> </p> <p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify;"> <b> <span lang="en-us" xml:lang="en-us">  </span> </b> </p> <p> <b> </b> </p> <b>Cite this article as </b>: Genç, Vural, “Fatih’in Emperyal İmajına Bir Acem’in Katkısı: Riyâzî-i Semerkandî e”, Turk J Hist sayı 69 (2019), s.37-50. <p class="MsoNormal"> <span lang="en-us" xml:lang="en-us"> </span> </p> <p> </p>}, number={69}, publisher={İstanbul Üniversitesi}
