Which modes of transport do you use in your daily life? What are the sights you see when you look around while traveling in these vehicles? In this workshop, we look at the works of Clara Barthold Mayer including the sultan’s imperial caïques, discuss the modes of transport used in the past and imagine the vehicles of the future. After the guided tour of the online exhibition, we start our workshop where we paint landscapes that portray our imaginary future using watercolor. In this workshop, we improve our fine motor skills and boost our creativity.

Journey to the East

Journey to the East

Pera Museum presents an exhibition of French artist Félix Ziem, one of the most original landscape painters of the 19th century. This week we are sharing Ziem’s work inspired by Istanbul and “the East”!

French artist Félix Ziem is one of the most original landscape painters of the 19thcentury. The exhibition Wanderer on the Sea of Light presents Ziem as an artist who left his mark on 19th century painting and who is mostly known for his paintings of Istanbul and Venice, where the city and the sea are intertwined.

Félix Ziem is accepted as one of the well-known artists of the romantic landscape painting, and has been followed closely by art lovers and collectors of all periods since. He had a profound influence on generations of artists after him, and was the first artist whose works were acquired by the Louvre while he was still alive.
