Horsecart painting, a folk art rooted in the Ottoman ornamentation tradition that once shaped regional visual culture, has largely been disappeared. In this article (in Turkish), I documented the life and work of Enver Ertaban, one of the last commercial painters in the city of Bursa, in an attempt to preserve the memory of this lost visual tradition.

In Southern California the phrase "coffee shop" used to mean "diner", but now it means a place that you can lounge around in with espresso drinks. See e.g. the pictured sign: Jack's started up in 1933. Does anyone have any idea when this changed? I feel like it was sometime in the 90s but don't really know.
I'm also curious how widespread this usage was (or is, if it's still used anywhere). Just Southern California? All of California? Elsewhere?
