I did take pictures from the side, rather than the front. I has to do with the fact that I approached from the east, as I was on my way to a museum that I like a lot, the Ankara Vakıf Eserlerin Muzesi. It used to be hard to find (I overlooked it during many early visits) as it was in a side street surrounded by other buildings. Now its freestanding, I show it on some pictures in this series. They were cleaning some carpets in their collection, washing them, then drying them in the fearsome sun.

The museum is to the right.
