Garden of Secrets

Topkapi Palace tiles keep salacious secrets. Amid elegant corridors and intimidating opulence, confidences and collusion are common. Fantasies are fuelled in whispers. There have been clandestine trysts, in the garden, after midnight. Elaborate schemes for escapes, furtive fumblings or veiled longings. Dalliances masked by deception. Eyebrow raising overtures and even menacing threats. All witnessed only by the ever-silent tiles. Radiant flowers incarcerated in glaze. Beautiful backdrops to the sagas and the sin.​ ​
