The Last Ottoman Capital İstanbul

In Rumeli Hisarı a woman climbs a narrow cobbled street, her back to the Bosphorus and the opposite shroe... In Tarlabaşı a man is trying to cross the road where the light falls most brightly... In Tahtakale a porter trapped between two cart struggles to free himself and his load... In Sultanahmet a child looks from the window of one of the few remaining olda mansions... In one of the shanty suburbs surrounding the citly four women returning from the market walk towards the sun, as if they might melt and blend into its colours... On Beykoz Meadow the sellers of sacrificial sheep wait for customers... (Preface)
