Have you ever noticed the old-style chandeliers with shiny crystals at the Museum’s Cafe? One of these chandeliers has been taken upstairs to the exhibition floors to be shown at PƎRⱯ Reverse, while a completely different light source was used as its replacement. At this workshop, kids who are inspired by the exhibition design a chandelier of Pera Museum. By using transparent papers, paints and the playful interactions of light, the kids get hands-on experience in working with concepts, such as color theory, transparency, and light.

This life-size portrait of a girl is a fine example of the British art of portrait painting in the early 18th century. The child is shown posing on a terrace, which is enclosed at the right foreground by the plinth of a pillar; the background is mainly filled with trees and shrubs.
Based on similar examples by the European painters in various collections, this work is one of the portraits of Mihrimah Sultan, who was depicted rather often in the 16th century.
“A nameless Egyptian fresco, an African idol or a vase from Crete: we should behold Pirosmani’s art among them. Only this way it is possible to conceive it genuinely … …You see Pirosmani – you believe in Georgia”.
