Early life
Bedri Rahmi Eyüboğlu was born in 1911 in Görele on the Black Sea, the second child in a family with five.[2] His elder brother, Sabahattin Eyüboğlu, was a well-known writer and his younger sister, Mualla Eyüboğlu, was one of the first architects working in restoration and well known for her work on the Harem section of Topkapı Palace in Istanbul.[2] Due to his father's position as a Governor, Eyüboğlu lived in various parts of Turkey before attending high school in Trabzon. In 1928, he started to write poetry.[3]
In 1929, he moved to Istanbul to enter the Mimar Sinan Fine Arts University (formerly Academy of Fine Arts, Istanbul).[5] In 1931 he left the Academy temporarily to go to France with his brother, studying French first in Dijon and then in Lyon. He then studied at the Andre Lohte's studio in Paris, where he met his future wife, Eren Eyüboğlu (née Ernestine Leibovici).[6] They were married 1933.[7] Eren organized his first one-man show at the Hasefer Gallery in Bucharest in 1935.
Back in Turkey, he completed his studies and obtained his diploma in 1936. In 1937, he entered the Academy as an assistant and translator of Léopold Lévy. He remained at the Academy until his death in 1975. He was sent by the government to work in Edirne in 1938 and then in Çorum and Iskilip in 1942, a period that marked a turning point in his artistic career.Шаблон:Citation needed
