Turkish woman - modern style
Turkish woman and the Galata Tower. Picture from a set of cards issued to reflect the fact that soon after Ataturk took over in Turkey in the 1920s, there was liberation by women from the old modes of dress. Instead of impenetrable veils, they wore lighter, thinner veils. It was a move to modernisation and more Western thought away from heavy Orientalism

EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative image captures the spirit of transformation in Turkey during the 1920s, a time of significant social and cultural change. The Turkish woman, dressed in a modern shift dress and thin veil, stands before the iconic Galata Tower in Istanbul, once known as Constantinople. With her casual, leaning posture and stylish attire, she reflects the liberation of women from the heavy orientalist modes of dress that had long defined Turkish culture. Following the modernisation and westernisation efforts led by Mustafa Kemal Ataturk, Turkish women embraced lighter, more Western-inspired clothing as a symbol of their newfound freedom and independence. This photograph, taken in the twenties, is a poignant reminder of this historical shift, as the woman's contemporary appearance starkly contrasts with the ancient Galata Tower in the background. The wall, adorned with intricate patterns and colors, serves as a visual bridge between the old and the new, highlighting the rich history of Istanbul while showcasing the progress towards a more modern society. The woman's beauty and grace, combined with the timeless allure of the Galata Tower, make this photograph a captivating representation of Turkey's complex and dynamic history.
