I am offering a beautiful multi‑color woodcut print depicting the city of Istanbul, created by Turkish artist Sukran Ulucan in 2010 on the occasion of the exhibition “Italy-Turkey, Dialogue Between Cultures” in Lecce. The print is a prestigious limited edition of only 4 impressions, of which this is no. 2/4 and the only one from this series in my possession.
