ARTISTIC REPRESENTATION OF FAMILY GENERATIONS:
MASTER GALIP'S CREATION

The Strength of Family Bonds Embellished with Turkey's Colorful Flowers

A creation of master Galip. Each circle represents a generation of the family. Starting from the centre as a small circle, getting bigger and bigger with each circle, representing the extension of the family through generations. Each circle is filled with colorful flowers found in Turkey, like tulips, roses, carnations, pomegranate, apple tree flowers etc. Sometimes a raised decoration is added, and small dots represent evil eyes to protect the family against bad luck.
