Istanbul Carpet trade december 2015 5307.jpg

view map

There is a pedestrian shopping street at the north exit of the Nurosmaniye complex, Google calls it the Nuru Osmaniye Caddesi. In it are some expensive shops that sell high-end "souvenirs". I could not resist taking pictures of a few carpets.

I think this is a potpourri, I recognize some elements (Breughel meets Nebuchadnezzar or something in that order), but someone decided this was a fine mixture, particular in a rococo setting. I disagree, but someone will buy it.
