Beautiful Istanbul, a City of Two Continents - Asia in Distance to the Northeast (Right), c1930s
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This print takes us back to the enchanting cityscape of Istanbul in the 1930s. From an elevated viewpoint, we are treated to a mesmerizing aerial view of this historic metropolis that straddles two continents. In the distance, towards the northeast, lies Asia, with its mysterious allure beckoning travelers from afar. The Galata Bridge gracefully spans across the majestic Bosphorous strait, connecting Europe and Asia seamlessly. This architectural marvel serves as a symbolic link between two worlds and stands as a testament to Istanbul's rich cultural heritage. The image captures a moment during daylight hours when sunlight casts its golden glow upon the city's rooftops. Amidst these ancient structures, billowing black smoke adds an intriguing contrast against the sky – perhaps emanating from bustling chimneys or steam-powered locomotives. As we delve into this vintage photograph from "Tour of the World" published by Keystone View Company, we find ourselves transported to another era where Constantinople was still known as Stamboul. The panorama before us is both awe-inspiring and thought-provoking; it invites us to explore further into Turkey's fascinating history and urbanization. Although taken by an unknown photographer, this print holds immense value for those who appreciate artistry combined with historical significance. It allows us to witness Istanbul's timeless beauty while contemplating its role as a bridge between cultures and continents throughout centuries past.
