Understanding Rembrandt, a photo from Istanbul, Marmara

Photographer's Note

This days a wonderfull art exhibition with artworks of Renbrandt and other famous dutch painters of thesame age takes place in İstanbul at the galleries of the famous Sabancı Museum.
It's absolutely the most expensive exhibition which took place in İstanbul.
Here a guest admires the artworks in one of the galleries of the exhibition.

Bugünlerde Sabancı Müzesi salonlarında "Rembrandt ve Çağdaşları" adlı bir sergi İstanbullu sanatseverlerin beğenisine sunuldu.
Bugüne kadar İstanbul'a gelen sergilerin en pahallısı.
Bu karede, ziyaretçilerden biri, eserlerle dialog halinde.
İstanbullu TE dostlarına duyurulur.

hi Mesut

A good picture of a painting gallery, due to the lights on the paintings and the prson looking at one of them. I would have avoid to cut the frame of a painting at left (see my proposal in the WS)

Très bonne présentation de cette exposition Rembrandt. Jolie gestion de la lumière, bonne composition et de très beaux tons d'image. Je partage tout à fait la vision de Claude et le recadrage qu'il t'a proposé.
Amicalement

Hello Mesut,
a very well composed picture with wonderful lighting and colours. You've captured marvellously the atmosphere of this gallery of the museum along with the spirit of the exhibition. There's a feeling of thoughtful silence, concentration and admiration, the viewer's posture and fixed gaze is very telling. You're very lucky to have the Dutch masters in town. Well done and thank you for a glimpse in a fascinating exhibition!
All the best,
Ourania

Merhaba Mesut Bey,

Sergi temalı harika fotoğraflarınıza çok şık bir örnek daha. Etkili diyagonal kompozisyonu, nefis ışık kullanımı ve sonucunda ışık/gölge dengesinde kusursuzluğun yakalandığı fevkalade bir kare yaratmışsınız. Elinize sağlık. Selamlar,

Süleyman

Hallo Mesut,
das ist immer eine schwierige Aufgabe: Fotos von Ausstellungen. Meistens, wenn es um so berühmte Bilder geht, sind schrecklich viele Leute dort und versperren die Sicht, oder es ist verboten zu fotografieren oder beides. Auch das Licht ist nicht einfach, ein dunkler Raum mit hellen Spots auf den Gemälden. Dein Foto ist sehr gut gelungen, aber es sieht auch ein bißchen nach heimlicher Fotografie aus. Musstest Du Dich vor den Museums-Aufpassern verstecken? Ich bin mit Clodos workshop einverstanden.
Viele Grüße
Elvira

Ciao Mesut
uno scatto molto bello, ottimo il controllo della luce, molto importante in questi casi.
Bella la composizione con la persona a destra.
Saluti

Merhaba Mesut
A very good one in your series on museums
I like the contrast between the paintings in full light (culture!) and the visitor in the shade (ignorance), learning, at least one way one can see it
Best regards
Patrick

Ciao caro Mesut,
Mi soffermo a criticare la bellezza di questa scena, in cui le luci ed il visitatore si frammischiano allo splendore dei pezzi d'arte raffigurati.
Un caro saluto.
Giorgio

faubry (35335) 2012-04-11 15:56

Hi Mesut,
A pleasantly composed picture with the spotlights playing an important role. The person is also adding life and interest to the picture. Of course you can say a lot about Rembrandt´s ability to compose pictures as well, he was truly a real artist. I would like to know what he could have done with a camera...
Kind regards
Gunnar

tyro (13101) 2012-04-13 2:17

Hello Mesut,

I love these interior shots in museums and art galleries and this one is excellent!

The composition is wonderful and the lighting superb. I like how the paintings are lit and yet the guest stands in darkness enjoying the experience of admiring the works of the artists. Lovely colours and perfect exposure and detail.

Lovely!

Kind Regards,

John.

Hello Mesut,such a beautifully composed image with the lady perfectly positioned between the portraits.
The serenity and ambiance are superbly captured.
Best regards Les.

holmertz (26958) 2012-04-14 12:01

Hello Mesut,
The three spotlights on the featured paintings and the silhouetted spectator placed at a third from the right make this an interesting and colourful contribution to TE. An already good composition is made even better by the workshop of Clodo.
Kind rgards,
Gert

Merhaba Sevgili Mesut,

Renaissance Devirinden sonra en sevdigim sanaat deviri 17.ci asirin Hollanda (the Great Dutch Master) oluyor. Sabanci Müzesi Istanbul'un sanat severlerine muhtesem bir hediye saglamis. Ben de orada iki sergi görmüstüm çok beyendigim — biri Venedik'in Renaissansi devrinde Osmanlilarla ticareti, bir de bir Picasso sergisi. Bu fotografi "Visitors at a Museum" theme'ine almak gerekir.

Selam ve sevgilerimle,

Bülent
