Object:Pazarola Hasan Bey drinks coffee
Description:Close-up of Pazarola Hasan Bey drinking a cup of coffee. In his right hand, he is holding a cigarette. He is dressed in traditional and used clothes.
Comment:The photograph was used in the context of an article by Osman Cemal (Kaygılı) with the title, ‘Istanbul’s most well-known man: Pazarola Hasan Bey’, in the weekly journal Resimli Ay. Pazarola Hasan Bey (approx. 1880–1922) was a famous ‘crazy’ personality in Istanbul at the turn of the century. He was a factotum of the bazaar district around Beyazıt meydanı. The merchants and retailers of the time valued him as a good luck charm who would bless their shops and goods.
