Birinci İstanbul kitabım Eski İstanbul Anıları siyah beyaz ikinci İstanbul kitabım 'Yitirilmiş Renkler' ise renkli oldu.Her ne kadar renkli fotograf siyah-beyazın sağlamlığından yoksunsa da,bu kitapta sanat kaygısına kapılmadım, yalnızca İstanbul'u kendine özgü renklerle sunmaya çalıştım; çünkü amacım sanat fotografı yapmak değil, İstanbul'u olduğu yansıtmaktır.İstanbul benim için nedir ...İstanbul Jean Giraudux'un La Folle de Chaillot'sudur.Fikret Adil bu oyunu Deli Saraylı adıyla Türkçeye uyarlamıştı.Çocukluğumdan beri İstanbul'un bu denli saraylı olduğunu düşünürüm.Ama öyle bir deli saraylı ki, hem Roma'da hem Bizans'ta, hem Osmanlı'da yaşamış..Birikimlerin deli saraylısı. Hipodromda gladyatörlerle birlikte ata binmiş, Bizans sarayında gözde olmuş,Zoe adıyla, Teodora adıyla imparatoriçelik tahtına oturmuş, Osmanlı'da ürrem sultan olmuş...Bugün bile kenti gezerken Binbir Direk sarnıcının sütunları arkasından sizi gözler, geceleri Bizans saray mozaiklerinin üzerinde dolaşır, Tekfur Sarayı'nın penceresinden sizi izler.

Dust jacket. Condition: Fine. Dust Jacket Condition: Fine. 2nd Edition. Original bdg. Dust wrapper. Folio. (33,5 x 23 cm). In English. 295 p., color ills. Ara Güler. Vanished colours. Texts by Ara Güler, Mehmet Baydur. In Ara Güler's words: ''My first book on Istanbul was in black and white, my second book, 'Vanished Colours', is in colour. Colour photographs lack the solidity of black-and-white, and in this book I have given priority not so much to artistic considerations as to an attempt to present the city of Istanbul in its own characteristic colours. My aim is not to produce art photography, but simply to reflect ?stanbul as it really is. What does Istanbul mean to me? ?stanbul is Jean Giraudoux' La Folle de Chaillot. Every since my childhood I have always identified Istanbul with the madwoman of Chaillot, a crazy woman of the type you can find in the Roman, Byzantine and Ottoman civilisations.''. Second Edition.
