EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures a moment in time as women in Istanbul, Turkey, make their way through the city in traditional covered carriages, or 'çarşıfiyeliks,' circa 1930s. The quayside of this bustling metropolis serves as the backdrop for this scene, with the Bosphorus Strait and its scenic waterfront visible in the distance. The women, dressed in elegant attire, are seated comfortably in the spacious interiors of the carriages, which are pulled by horses. The use of covered carriages for women was a common practice in Istanbul during the early 20th century, providing a level of privacy and protection from the elements and the prying eyes of strangers. These carriages were an essential mode of transportation for women, especially in the conservative Muslim society of the time. The taxi cabs, which can be seen in the background, represent the emerging modern transportation options that were beginning to challenge the traditional carriage industry. Despite this, the carriages remained a popular choice for many, offering a unique and authentic experience that connected women to the rich history and cultural traditions of Istanbul. This photograph offers a glimpse into the past, transporting us back to a time when horse-drawn carriages were a common sight on the streets of Istanbul. It is a reminder of the city's rich history and its ability to blend the old with the new, creating a vibrant and dynamic urban landscape that continues to captivate visitors from around the world.
