Editor's Note
In 1994 the statues of İsmet and Mevhibe İnönü were commissioned from Metin Yurdanur by Mehmet Özel, Director General of Fine Arts at the Ministry of Culture, to be placed in a public space in Çeşme, İzmir. At the ministry's request, the İnönüs were depicted hand in hand, walking and gazing at each other lovingly, in a composition shaped by Metin Yurdanur's own interpretation. On the pedestal is inscribed İsmet İnönü's saying: "In a country where the honest are not at least as courageous as the dishonest, that country has no hope of salvation."
