Published in honor of the centennial of Anadolu Ajansı (AA)—the institutional memory and historical archive of the Republic of Türkiye since its founding on April 6, 1920—this prestigious photo album, Our Presidents: From Atatürk to Erdoğan, immortalizes defining presidential moments through a curated selection of rare photographs from the AA archive.
More than a chronicle of Türkiye’s Presidents meeting with world leaders or conducting official visits at home and abroad, the book also offers glimpses into the quieter, more personal sides of their lives. With images capturing significant visits, diplomatic meetings, and historic milestones, this visual journey provides a deeper insight into the political history of the Republic of Türkiye.
The photographs reveal not only the political stature of the Presidents, but also the connections they forged with the public. In this sense, Our Presidents: From Atatürk to Erdoğan stands as a singular historical volume—offering a visual reflection on Türkiye’s path to modernization and the pivotal roles played by its Presidents in shaping that journey.
