    A pair of richly framed oil on canvas paintings depict lively scenes of Istanbul in the Ottoman period.

    In the first, merchants and travelers in traditional costumes trade fruit and wares in a colorful market.

    In the background, a busy port and a domed mosque recall the city's typical architecture.

    The second canvas highlights port activity, with tall ships and a shoreline bathed in light.

    The characters, dressed in period costumes, discuss and negotiate amidst a bustling commercial scene.

    The luminous sky and warm tones evoke the orientalist aesthetic of the 19th century.

    The meticulous details - costumes, minarets, domes and silhouettes - reinforce the historical authenticity.

    Each painting offers a picturesque testimony to daily life in Istanbul of yesteryear.

    The sharp contrasts and warm palette lend a spectacular character to the whole.

    Finally, the elegance of the gilded frames enhances these works, which capture the vitality of the city of Istanbul.
