EDITORS COMMENTS
This photo print, titled "Panorama overlooking Istanbul and the Bosphorus, c. 1890" takes us back in time to a mesmerizing view of one of the world's most iconic cities. Captured by renowned Turkish photography studio Sebah & Joaillier, this image offers a glimpse into the rich history and cultural heritage of Istanbul. From a bird's eye perspective, we are treated to an expansive vista that stretches across both Europe and Asia. The majestic Bosphorus Strait connects these two continents while dividing the cityscape into distinct halves. The intricate bridges that span the strait serve as symbols of unity between East and West. The rooftops create a patchwork quilt-like effect, showcasing the diverse architecture that dots the landscape. From grand palaces to humble dwellings, each building tells its own story within this bustling metropolis. The skyline is punctuated by minarets reaching towards the heavens, reminding us of Istanbul's deep-rooted Islamic traditions. This panoramic birds-eye view captures not only physical structures but also glimpses into daily life - bustling streets filled with people going about their routines. As we gaze upon this photograph from above, we can't help but be transported back in time to an era when Constantinople was at its zenith as a global capital. It serves as a testament to both human ingenuity in creating such an awe-inspiring cityscape and nature's beauty in providing such a breathtaking setting for it all. In collaboration with Bridg
