Children design colorful animal portraits inspired by Paula Rego’s animal figures in her works, as she sometimes depicts herself and people she knows as animals. After a guided exhibition tour, children decorate animal portraits of egg cartoons with acrylic paints and materials such as chenille and pom poms. Due to the three-dimensional structure of the viol, colorful animal portraits appear as they go beyond their paintings.

Galatasaray, an Institution of Institutions | Besim F. Dellaloğlu

Is Istanbul a single city? Will Istanbul too, be one day one day divided into different sections, and numbered like the arrondisements of Paris? These are tough questions indeed!

From two portraits of children…

The Suna and İnan Kıraç Foundation’s Orientalist Painting Collection includes two children’s portraits that are often featured in exhibitions on the second floor of the Pera Museum. These portraits both date back to the early 20th century, and were made four years apart. One depicts Prince Abdürrahim Efendi, son of Sultan Abdulhamid II, while the figure portrayed on the other is Nazlı, the daughter of Osman Hamdi Bey.
