Description: 
Studio photograph taken by Ahmet Şevki in Nicosia, about 1918. A young boy is standing with his left arm resting on a high corner table. He is wearing a two-piece suit made of English cashmere, a white gömlek (shirt) and a bow-tie. Attached on the collar of his jack­et there is a fresh carnation, as was fashionable in those days. European shoes and a soft fes (fez) made of keçe (felt), complete the attire.
