EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a mesmerizing view of Istanbul, captured in the 16th century by Al-Silahi Nasuh (Matraki). The artwork, titled "IUK T. 5964 View of Istanbul" is a stunning gouache on paper masterpiece that now resides in the Topkapi Palace Museum in Istanbul, Turkey. The image offers a birds-eye perspective of this historic city, with the majestic Golden Horn stretching across the center and up towards the left-hand side. A large boat with a white sail can be seen gracefully gliding through the waters at the bottom right corner, adding an element of movement to this otherwise serene scene. The artist's attention to detail is evident as every stroke beautifully captures the essence and grandeur of Constantinople (as it was known then). The intricate depiction includes various landmarks such as ports, harbors, and even provides a glimpse into life along the Bosphorus. As you immerse yourself in this enchanting piece, you are transported back in time to witness Istanbul's rich history unfold before your eyes. This remarkable artwork not only serves as a visual delight but also acts as an invaluable historical document that allows us to appreciate and understand how this iconic city has evolved over centuries.
