EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Constantinople: Quarter of the Bazaars" takes us back in time to early 20th century Turkey. The image, captured by an anonymous Turkish photographer, showcases the bustling quarter of the bazaars in Constantinople (now Istanbul). The monochromatic tones add a sense of nostalgia and evoke a feeling of stepping into history. The intricate details are brought to life through shades of white and grey, highlighting the architectural beauty that fills this vibrant city. As we gaze upon this snapshot from the past, we can almost hear the echoes of merchants haggling over goods and smell the fragrant spices wafting through narrow alleyways. The bazaars were not only places for trade but also served as cultural hubs where people from different backgrounds converged. Published in Jacques Ludwigsohn's booklet on Constantinople in 1909 or earlier, these photos credit Maison Sebah & Joaillier for their stunning composition. This particular photograph captures a moment frozen in time - a testament to both artistic skill and historical significance. Through this visual journey, we gain insight into an era when Constantinople was at its peak as a crossroads between Europe and Asia. It serves as a reminder of how cities evolve over time while still preserving their unique charm. Bridgeman Images has preserved this remarkable piece from our collective heritage, allowing us to appreciate its timeless beauty today.
