An exhibition titled “Selimiye Social Complex Photograph Exhibition in the 450th Anniversary of Its Construction” has opened in Edirne, displaying Istanbul Technical University’s Assoc. Prof. Dr. Aras Neftçi’s extensive photography of the iconic Selimiye Mosque. Organized as part of the “Ottoman Identity and Selimiye Symposium,” this exhibition at the Devecihan Cultural Center features a collection of photographs Neftçi has taken over nearly 45 years, capturing Mimar Sinan’s architectural masterpiece.

Dr. Neftçi expressed pride in the exhibit, sharing, “It’s an honor to document a work like Selimiye, which not every architect can experience.”
