EDITORS COMMENTS
1. Title: "A Moonlit Night at the Fountain of Ahmed III, Istanbul, Turkey (1897)" This evocative postcard image captures the enchanting allure of Istanbul's Fountain of Ahmed III under the gentle glow of a moonlit night. Dated back to 1897, this photograph transports us back in time to the late 19th century, during the final years of the Ottoman Empire. The Fountain of Ahmed III, also known as the New Fountain, is a stunning architectural masterpiece located in the historical Eminönü district of Istanbul. Commissioned by Sultan Ahmed III in 1728, the fountain stands as a testament to the grandeur and opulence of the Ottoman Empire. In this photograph, the fountain's intricate design is illuminated by the soft, ethereal light of the moon. The water cascades gracefully from the central basin, creating a mesmerizing reflection on the tranquil surface. The surrounding trees and foliage are silhouetted against the night sky, adding depth and texture to the scene. The photograph, taken by Max Fruchtermann, is a beautiful example of the artistic prowess of late 19th-century photography. The use of natural lighting and the careful composition of the image showcase Fruchtermann's skill and appreciation for the beauty of his surroundings. This postcard invites us to imagine the sights, sounds, and sensations of a moonlit evening in Istanbul during the Ottoman era. It serves as a reminder of the rich history and cultural heritage that continues to captivate and inspire visitors to this day.
