Original artwork description:

This artwork captures one of Istanbul’s most iconic symbols — the historic red tram — making its way through a snowy Istiklal Street (Taksim square). The contrast between the bright red carriage and the muted winter tones brings a sense of movement, warmth, and nostalgia. Gentle snowfall, blurred silhouettes under umbrellas, and soft reflections on the wet pavement create an atmospheric scene full of life and emotion.

Living in Istanbul, I often draw inspiration from its unique rhythm and timeless charm. This painting reflects the poetry of winter in the city — when familiar streets become cinematic, and every moment feels like a fleeting story.
