Classic Film Scenes as Ottoman Miniatures Fuse Cultures

The artistic style of the Ottoman miniature originated in modern-day Turkey in the early 16th Century. Pulp Fiction originated in the twisted mind of Quentin Tarantino in 1990. Graphic designer and artist Murat Palta combines this and other films with the traditional Turkish style of illumination in his series “Classic Movies in Miniature Style” and the results are truly amazing. Hit the jump to see a gallery of a few highlights of the series.

Palta mentions on the series’ Bēhance page that the project was created for his university graduation thesis. The series features 11 images, which in turn are featured below. Enjoy!
