After visiting the exhibitions titled Intersecting Worlds: Ambassadors and Painters and Osman Hamdi Bey with a guide, children examine the centuries-old portraits in the paintings and discuss people's clothing, accessories, posture, and expressions. In the workshop, the details of the figures in these paintings are cut out and placed between transparent films. They use various decorative materials and paints to create new characters and finalize their collages with a laminating machine.
