Men Carrying Gourds, Istanbul

Ordering Information
Description
I love the singularity, the focus of street life in Istanbul, especially near the Grand Bazaar. What kind of photograph would it be if everyone shopped in supermarkets, stuffing plastic bags full of packaged goods, loading them into station wagons and heading for the suburbs? Pretty boring, for starters. Yet how many American children know nothing but this bland version of Life Not Really Lived? Go visit Istanbul!
Black and white, 1976.
