Ramadan musicians collecting bahşiş
| Description: | A man in tattered clothes, a flat cap and dirty shoes is playing the zurna in front of a house door, accompanied by a similarly dressed musician beating a kudüm. They are surrounded by other men and three boys, who are listening and watching. Between the two musicians, a man in a very neat hat and tie offers a plate to a man standing at the entrance. The latter looks towards the camera and ostentatiously places a coin onto the offered plate. |

| Comment: | The picture accompanied an article in Cumhuriyet with the title, ‘Impressions of yesterday’s holiday’. Its legend reads: ‘Beggars’ (dilenciler). Ramadan drummers and musicians traditionally walk the streets to wake up the inhabitants in time for sahur, the last meal before sunrise and a day of fasting. |
