A bronze bust of a man, presumed to be Atatürk, is mounted on a large, triangular granite pedestal
Short TermA bronze bust of a man, presumed to be Atatürk, is mounted on a large, triangular granite pedestal. The pedestal has a plaque inscribed in Turkish, stating: "Bu Atatürk büstü ve park inşaatı ile tüm çevre düzenlemesi MESİAD (Merter Sanayici ve İşadamları Derneği) tarafından yapılmıştır. Temmuz 2001." This translates to: "This Atatürk bust and park construction and all environmental arrangements were made by MESİAD (Merter Industrialists and Businessmen Association). July 2001." The statue and pedestal are situated on a tiered, gray stone platform, which is then on a sidewalk with small, round pebbles and dark gray paving stones. Behind the statue, a building with large green-tinted windows and glass doors is visible. A security camera is mounted on the exterior of the building above the statue. To the left of the statue, a small green bush is planted in a concrete planter. The ground around the base of the platform is littered with dry leaves and some cigarette butts. In the background, a white van is parked, and a tree with sun-dappled leaves casts shadows on the scene. The location is identified as Gungoren, Turkey.
