Mustafa Başaran (Kibar Dede) with his bağlama (MZ.2026.5.3)

Translated from the Turkish original.

MZ.2026.5.3

Indoors, an old man with white hair and a moustache sits on a divan playing the bağlama on his lap; he wears a dark jumper over a shirt, his head slightly bowed. The colours of the photograph have yellowed; light falls on his face from the left.

A copy of a printed photograph. It appears in Zeynep Oktay's memoir of Mustafa Başaran; the site owner has also confirmed that it shows Mustafa Başaran (18 October 2026). The file name “Hüseyin Başaran. Bilinmiyor” (Hüseyin Başaran. Unknown) most likely refers to the photograph's source, not the person shown.
