istanbul triptych

Posted on January 23, 2012 @ 7:20 pm by massimo | Filed under: architecture,art,blog,fun,illustration,news,travel,turkey,wordpress

I recently paid a visit to Istanbul. It was my first time and I must say that Iistanbul is absolutely worth even a three day excursion! Not to mention (obviously) the city overwhelming architectural and artistic inheritage, you will be hit by contemporary Istanbul’s astonishing diversity, its hybrid character, the variety of its multiracial and ethnic traditions, its booming economy and its actual “speed of life”. I know that -considering whatever place you wish- there is always a  strong discrepancy between the reality and the perception of reality. Nevertheless, as every updated tourist, who has having a great time, I too shot a short video about three Istanbul famous locations, relatively  to the various feelings the city communicated me. So, no illustrations this time! Yet my video clip has a peculiar graphic carachter in order to quote those romantic artists and travellers who, during late eighteen and early nineteen centuries, enjoyed themselves in drawing, etching and  watercolouring.

The picture that you have included in this post caught my attention. The tale of Instanbul is nice but rather short.
