The Southern side of the Republic Monument (Cumhuriyet Anıtı), in Taksim Square, Istanbul, Turkey.
Following the formation of the secular Turkish Republic in 1923, the edicts forbidding the depiction of effigies as idolatory were swept away. The monument, built in Rome by Italian sculptor Pietro Canonica and shipped to Istanbul in 1928, therefore has a symbolism that goes beyond the commemoration of Turkey's new political identity. The Southern side of the monument depicts Ataturk and his key supporters in modern Western clothing, to symbolise the modernisation of Turkey.
Shot with a Nikon D40 and a Tamron 70-300mm F4/5.6 DI LD (Nikon AFS) lens and processed in GIMP and Photoscape.
