Elderly Man Outside Bursa Antique Shop

An elderly Turkish man stands outside a weathered antique shop on a narrow cobblestone street in Bursa, Türkiye. The storefront features a faded wooden sign in Turkish reading 'Antika Dükkânı', a small display window packed with brass teapots, copper cezve, Iznik ceramic plates, and vintage pocket watches. The door is ajar, a warm glow spilling onto the street and illuminating the man’s face. He wears a dark wool overcoat, a striped scarf, and a felt flat cap; his face is lined with age, and one hand rests on a polished wooden cane. He gazes softly down the street as golden hour light bathes the scene, casting long shadows and lending the coppery tones of the shop hardware a glow. Behind him are brick and timber facades, hints of Bursa’s historic architecture, and distant hints of a minaret against a clear sky. The camera angle is eye-level with a slight three-quarter view, using a 50mm lens and shallow depth of field so the man and shopfront are in sharp focus while the background is softly blurred. Rich earth tones—terracotta, bronze, emerald, and muted blues—enhance a nostalgic, timeless mood with photorealistic, cinematic lighting.
