EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the bustling streets of Constantinople in the late 19th century. The image captures a vibrant bazaar, teeming with people from all walks of life. Stalls line the narrow alleyways, showcasing an array of goods that reflect the rich cultural tapestry of Turkey. The market scene is a testament to the country's long history as a hub for trade and commerce. Merchants proudly display their wares, enticing passersby with colorful fabrics, exotic spices, and intricate handicrafts. The air is filled with lively chatter as locals negotiate prices and tourists marvel at the unique treasures on offer. Amidst this vibrant atmosphere, women wearing veils gracefully navigate through the crowd. Their presence adds an air of mystery to the scene, hinting at traditions deeply rooted in Turkish culture. The monochrome aesthetic lends a timeless quality to this engraving from "The Life & Times of Queen Victoria". It transports us back in time, allowing us to witness firsthand the sights and sounds that once filled these historic streets. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece of artistry by Robert Wilson (not related to any company), we are reminded of Istanbul's enduring allure – a city where East meets West and ancient traditions merge seamlessly with modernity. This print serves as both an exquisite visual representation and a historical document capturing Constantinople's vibrant past.
