The man in the shirt and tie, walking toward the woman with the small backpack. He is from 1996. She is from 2024. They will never meet. In this image, they are crossing the same ground 28 years apart, and the city, renewed, persistent, unchanged in feeling, holds them both.
We finish the Istanbul Revisit series just across the gate we see in image 11. Istanbul28Y12 Imperial Gate North side. The old image is the closing page of the book/pages ‘Istanbul Topkapi’ that I created from the images from 1996. I particularly like the man on the right in shirt and tie walking towards the woman with the small backpack, walking across 28 years. Again the old and new picture line up very well and show the renewal the city is going through while keeping it’s soul.
The image is made from two pictures that have 28 years between them. See the full story here: Istanbul revisited 28 years later
