Description
(Original Caption) 2/19/1923-Smyrna, Turkey- This photo depicts the joyous reception tendered to Mustapha Kemal Pasha by the Turkish residents of Smyrna, who greeted the President of the Grand National Assembly of Turkey on his return to that city. The greeting and reception was in decided contrast to Kemal's first visit, which was followed by the destruction of a great part of Smyrna. The reception on this second occasion was followed by his marriage to a wealthy and prominent young woman of Smyrna. Here, the crowds line the street to welcome Moustapha Kemal.
