photograph of two young men no. 042

Street photograph showing two young men with short hair and moustaches, standing side by side. As in No. 043, the one on the right of the photograph is dressed in European style, wearing a jacket of dark fabric over a white shirt, and light-coloured trousers. Dark leather laced shoes complete his appearance. The man on the left wears a light-coloured European-style jacket and shirt, over black knee-breeches (kara dizlik), a dark-coloured sash (kuşak) around his waist, knitted white stockings with linear patterns and laced ankle boots (gonçlu potin). The stockings come up to the knees, where they are tied with narrow bands. Both men have the same badge on their chest, inscribed with an A and the number 4000 underneath.
