EDITORS COMMENTS
This print depicts the Fountain of Sultan Ahmed III, located in the heart of Istanbul, the cultural and historical center of the Ottoman Empire in 1839. The image, produced through the technique of litography, showcases the intricate details and vibrant colors of the fountain, which was a popular gathering place for men of various backgrounds, including Arabian and Bactrian traders, camel drivers, and local residents. The men are seen engaged in daily activities such as drinking tea and socializing around the fountain, which is adorned with intricate designs and decorated with turquoise and lapis lazuli tiles. The watery surroundings of the fountain add to the serene and exotic atmosphere of the scene. The print also offers a glimpse into the Library of Ahmed III, located within the Topkapi Palace, which was a center of learning and knowledge during the Ottoman era. This horizontal print, with its rich colors and lively depiction of daily life, offers a fascinating window into the past and the diverse cultures that thrived in Istanbul during the Ottoman Empire.
