EDITORS COMMENTS
This print by Paul Seheult takes us on a visual journey to the heart of Istanbul, Turkey. The image showcases the magnificent Roman Hippodrome in Sultanahmet, where history and architecture intertwine seamlessly. At Meydani, also known as Cavalry Square, stands an impressive Egyptian Obelisk adorned with intricate relief carvings at its base. The relief depicts Emperor Theodosius I and his courtiers, offering a glimpse into the opulence and grandeur of ancient times. As we marvel at this remarkable piece of artistry, it becomes evident that this obelisk is not merely a monument but a testament to the rich cultural heritage that Istanbul embodies. The juxtaposition of European and Asian influences is palpable in this photograph. Istanbul's unique position straddling two continents - Europe and Asia - adds an extra layer of allure to its already enchanting charm. It serves as a reminder that this city is more than just a capital; it represents the meeting point between different worlds. As tourists flock to Sultanahmet for their holiday or vacation adventures, they are greeted by architectural wonders like the Roman Hippodrome. This iconic stadium once hosted chariot races and other spectacles that brought joy to countless spectators throughout history. Paul Seheult's expertly captured image invites us to immerse ourselves in the beauty of Istanbul's past while appreciating its vibrant present-day atmosphere.
