Cool. Interesting to see. Lot of cleavage
There is also a famous depiction of an Armenian child being skinned alive by Turks.

The second picture looks like the Harem of Topkapi Palace. I was there last week, incredible place
Marvelous paintings
these paintings show that the armenians lived a very privileged life under the ottoman rule.
Beautiful. I have this book as well. What a time portal
This is probably depicting rich city dweller Armenians in Istanbul.
What sticks out to me most is the women’s dresses are so immodest compared to what rural women wore in both Eastern and Western Armenia.
