My portrait gallery - VIII Photo

Photographer’s Note

8th portrait in my gallery is a famous turkish professor (med.) Ord.Prof.Dr.SÜHEYL ÜNVER, who was the head of medical history and deontology department of the Medical Faculty of the University of İstanbul. He was a great archivian of medical history and a perfect painter of traditional turkish miniatures.
This capture was been made a few years before he passed away. Also scanned from a b&w print.

Galerimdeki sekizinci portre ünlü tıp tarihçisi Ord.Prof.Dr. SÜHEYL ÜNVER, İstanbul Üniversitesi Tıp Fakültesi, Tıp tarihi ve deontoloji kürsüsü kurucusu ve ilk başkanı.
Mükemmel bir arşivci ve minyatür ressamı. Bu portresini Fenerbahçedeki evinde ölümünden birkaç yıl önce çekmiştim.
Bu kare de, siyah beyaz bir baskıdan tarandı.

Hallo Mesut!
Hier zeigst Du uns eine wirkliche Persönlichkeit - und das in einem wunderbaren Licht. Hier sieht man ganz augenscheinlich, dass die Fotografie die Kunst ist, mit Licht umzugehen, mit Licht zu spielen, Licht anzuwenden...
Ein sehr eindrucksvolles und "intensives" Bild!
Grüße aus dem - erspar's mir - Siegen!
Man könnte schwermütig werden - ich geh'e jetzt ins Wasser! ... aber im Hallenbad ;-))

Hello, dear Mesut!

I just the whole of your impressive serie, with all those extremely important persons, how lucky you must feel that you have met them, but you deserve it, no doubt it!!! These photos could be included in a photobook, describing the modern face of Turkey! Anyway, all of them are great, you have captured the true essence of every person, but I think that this one is the best of the series, so far! Magic natural light, perfect composition, perfect "natural" take! Congratulations!

Warm regards,
Hercules
