In 2015, EYE published Fantasia of Color in Early Cinema, based entirely on its own archival holdings. Hundreds of colorful frames from more than 60 films (1897-1915) were selected to be included in this book about fairy-tale, dream, metamorphosis and voyage. This film program presents some of the highlights allowing the audience to see the entire films that are only represented by few still images in the book.
Accompanied by Gevende’s live music and introduced by Elif Rongen-Kaynakçı, following films from Eye Filmmuseum’s collection will be screening:

Following the opening of his studio, “El Chark Societe Photographic,” on Beyoğlu’s Postacılar Caddesi in 1857, the Levantine-descent Pascal Sébah moves to yet another studio next to the Russian Embassy in 1860 with a Frenchman named A. Laroche, who, apart from having worked in Paris previously, is also quite familiar with photographic techniques.
Coffee was served with much splendor at the harems of the Ottoman palace and mansions. First, sweets (usually jam) was served on silverware, followed by coffee serving. The coffee jug would be placed in a sitil (brazier), which had three chains on its sides for carrying, had cinders in the middle, and was made of tombac, silver or brass. The sitil had a satin or silk cover embroidered with silver thread, tinsel, sequin or even pearls and diamonds.
