Crimson

Istanbul, Turkey
41° 1’ 33.17” N, 28° 58’ 35.76” E.

A mesmerizing patch of faux-tile art found on a street in Istanbul, where intricate blue patterns dance around a bold red centerpiece. Though painted, it mimics the elegance of glazed ceramics with an almost hypnotic effect. Is it a nod to Istanbul’s grand mosques, or just a vibrant flex of street creativity? Either way, it stops you in your tracks.
