This print titled "A Worthy New Capital for Turkey Angorra" takes us back to the early 20th century, specifically the year 1923. The image showcases the remarkable progress of construction in Ankara, which was set to become Turkey's new capital city. The extensive buildings under construction are a testament to the nation's ambitious vision for its future. The photograph also highlights a newly built boulevard that is destined to become the main thoroughfare of this modern metropolis. Its wide expanse and grandeur hint at the transformative power it holds, symbolizing progress and prosperity for Turkey. Through this monochrome snapshot captured by Central News, we catch a glimpse of an era when Europeana photography was still in its nascent stages. It allows us to appreciate both the historical significance of Ankara's rise as well as marvel at the advancements made during that time period. As we observe this scene frozen in time, let us reflect on how cities evolve over centuries and how they shape their nations' identities. This photograph serves as a reminder of Ankara's transformation into a worthy capital - one that would go on to play an integral role in shaping modern-day Turkey.
