This print titled "Old And New Ankara" takes us back to the year 1965, capturing a fascinating contrast between tradition and progress. The image showcases a new hospital standing proudly on the left side of the frame, while surrounded by a sea of ancient buildings and minarets in Ankara, Turkey. Renowned photographer George Pickow skillfully captures this juxtaposition, highlighting the coexistence of old-world charm with modern advancements. The square format adds an artistic touch to this monochromatic composition, emphasizing the timeless quality of the scene. The photograph's striking contrast further enhances our appreciation for both architectural styles present in Ankara during that era. As we gaze upon this intriguing snapshot frozen in time, we are transported to an era where change was slowly reshaping cities across Asia. This particular piece invites contemplation about how societies evolve over time while still preserving their cultural heritage. George Pickow's expertise shines through as he masterfully frames this momentous intersection between past and future. His keen eye for detail allows viewers to appreciate not only the physical structures but also sense the rich history embedded within them. This remarkable print from Fine Art Storehouse serves as a powerful reminder that progress does not necessarily mean erasing one's roots; rather, it can be achieved by embracing both old traditions and new innovations harmoniously.
