The durable clay tablets are like a time travel machine, sending the reader back thousands of years and allowing them to witness the curiosity and efforts of someone who lived many years ago. In the workshop, children traveling back in time are inspired by the replica of a clay tablet found in Kültepe, which is featured in The Art of Weights and Measures. Designing a unique alphabet where they encode each letter with a symbol, the children write a note on the clay tablets they create with this alphabet as a souvenir of their day at the museum.

Capacity: 12 people
Duration: 90 minutes
Fee per workshop: 250 TL

The event will take place in the Pera Museum (face-to-face).

Return from Vienna

Return from Vienna

Józef Brandt harboured a fascination for the history of 17th century Poland, and his favourite themes included ballistic scenes and genre scenes before and after the battle proper –all and sundry marches, returns, supply trains, billets and encampments, patrols, and similar motifs illustrating the drudgery of warfare outside of its culminating moments.
