Puzzle Design with Illustration

Pera Kids
Ages 7-12

  • October 14, 2023 / 13:30

In the workshop inspired by Coffee Break and The Art of Weights and Measures, participants develop their illustrative approaches and design a puzzle based on their drawings. Much like the restoration method in which archaeologists piece together historical artefacts like a jigsaw puzzle, children have the opportunity to assemble the pieces of their illustrative drawings, immersing themselves in the delightful world of illustration.

Instructor: Eda Çağıl Çağlarırmak
Capacity: 10 people
Duration: 90 minutes
Fee per workshop: 300 TL

The event will take place at the Pera Museum (face-to-face).

Game of Mangala

Three figures in Eastern dress are shown in repose against an exotic landscape, smoking pipes and playing mangala. Inventories of the royal collections from 1739 identify the members of this group as the royal eunuch Matthias and two odalisques.

In this piece, Żmurko presents an exotic image of a harem chamber, replete with gleaming fabrics and scattered jewels, as a setting for the statuesquely beautiful body of an odalisque murdered “at the order of the padishah”. 

The Battle of Varna

The Battle of Varna

Over the years of 1864 through 1876, Stanisław Chlebowski served Sultan Abdülaziz in Istanbul as his court painter. As it was, Abdülaziz disposed of considerable artistic talents of his own, and he actively involved himself in Chlebowski’s creative process, suggesting ideas for compositions –such as ballistic pieces praising the victories of Turkish arms.
