EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Constantinople: The Burnt Column" takes us back to the early 20th century, offering a glimpse into the rich history of this ancient city. Captured by an anonymous Turkish photographer, this image is part of a private collection and showcases the talent and artistry of Maison Sebah & Joaillier, renowned photographers based in Constantinople. The burnt column stands tall as a symbol of resilience amidst destruction. Published in Jacques Ludwigsohn's booklet on Constantinople in 1909 or earlier, this photograph transports us to a time when Istanbul was still known as Constantinople. Its monochromatic palette adds depth and mystery to the scene, emphasizing the architectural details that have withstood centuries. As we explore every corner of this mesmerizing image, we are reminded of Turkey's cultural heritage and its position bridging Europe and Asia. The composition captures both the European influence seen in Constantinople's architecture while also hinting at its Middle Eastern roots. With its intricate illustrations reminiscent of daguerreotype photography art from that era, this print offers a unique perspective on one of history's most fascinating cities. Whether you are an avid collector or simply appreciate fine art photography, "Constantinople: The Burnt Column" is sure to transport you back in time with its timeless beauty captured by Bridgeman Images.
