Turkish girl on a bridge over the Golden Horn
A Young Turkish girl standing on a bridge over the Golden Horn. 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
A captivating image of a young Turkish girl, standing confidently on the bridge over the Golden Horn in Istanbul, epitomizes the transformative era of the 1920s in Turkish history. This photograph is a poignant reflection of the liberation of women from the old, heavy Orientalist modes of dress, as they embraced a more modern and Westernized way of life. The girl, dressed in a light and airy shift dress, holds an umbrella in her hand, shielding herself from the occasional drizzle. Her veil, once an impenetrable barrier, is now lighter and thinner, allowing her face to be seen. The tram tracks and lines in the background serve as a reminder of the modernization taking place in the city, which was then known as Constantinople. This photograph is a significant historical record of the social changes that occurred in Turkey following the takeover by Mustafa Kemal Ataturk in 1922. The shift towards Westernization and modernization marked a departure from the traditional, heavy Orientalist ways, and this young Turkish lady stands as a symbol of that transformation. The image captures the essence of a new era, where women were free to express their individuality and embrace the changing times.
