EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a moment in history from 1906, showcasing two young boys in Istanbul, Turkey expertly mending holes in carpets. The image highlights the intricate art of carpet-mending, a skill that has been passed down through generations in this historical city.
The boys are seen diligently working on the delicate fabrics, their concentration evident as they carefully mend each hole with precision and expertise beyond their years. Their hands move swiftly across the colorful threads, weaving together a piece of history that tells a story of craftsmanship and tradition.
In Istanbul, where the carpet industry thrives, these young artisans play an important role in preserving the beauty and integrity of these valuable textiles. Their work not only ensures the longevity of these carpets but also honors the rich cultural heritage that is deeply rooted in every thread.
