Permanent Collection — Sakıp Sabancı Museum

About this event

The Sakıp Sabancı Museum's permanent collection is one of the most significant of its kind — spanning Ottoman calligraphy by masters such as Mustafa Râkim, Islamic manuscripts illuminated with gold leaf, and a strong survey of 19th and early 20th-century Turkish figurative painting. The collection occupies the mansion's original residential rooms and a connected pavilion, with Bosphorus views at almost every turn. Allow two hours and combine with a walk through Emirgan's chestnut-shaded park.
