Mehmed Nazif (1846-1913) was a well-known Ottoman calligrapher and cartographer. The Ottoman State often employed him to prepare fine calligraphic inscriptions for architecture (e.g. the Yıldız Clock Tower in Istanbul), objects, and ceremonial garments. He also served as a cartographer for the Ottoman Army under the Erkân-ı Harbiye or General Staff Presidency (اركان حربيۀ عموميه). After the Minister of War, he was the highest-ranking officer in the Ottoman Army.
