MZ.2026.6.2

A black-and-white photograph: in a garden in front of a house, an elderly man with a flat cap, glasses and a white beard sits on a chair with a small child on his lap. Behind him stands a girl with her hand to her mouth; iris leaves and trees on either side. — The children's names are not known; anyone who recognises them can write to us. According to Haydar Öztürk, the village children were very fond of Yusuf Ağa Dede.
