This acrylic on canvas painting by Jill James depicts a perspective view of the interior of the Grand Bazaar in Istanbul. The composition features the market’s distinctive vaulted ceilings, which are decorated with intricate blue and yellow geometric patterns. Figures are shown strolling through the central passageway, flanked by brightly lit shopfronts with signage including Mira and Ziva. The paint application is relatively thin, leaving the coarse weave of the canvas support visible through the pigment. The work is presented in a light brown moulded wood-effect frame. An exhibition label for the Rotherham Society of Artists is attached to the reverse, containing the artist’s name, address, and the title of the work.
22 x 17 inches.
