EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back in time to the bustling streets of Istanbul, Turkey, around 1880. The image captures a vibrant street scene filled with architectural marvels and intricate building elements that showcase the city's rich history and cultural heritage. As we gaze through the window of this old photograph, our eyes are immediately drawn to a young male child standing on the sidewalk. His portrait exudes innocence and curiosity as he observes his surroundings. It is fascinating to imagine what thoughts might be running through his mind as he witnesses the daily life unfolding before him. The street itself is lined with beautiful houses and structures, each boasting unique decorations and sections that add charm to the urban landscape. Tall trees stand proudly along both sides of the road, their lush foliage providing shade for pedestrians strolling by. Looking beyond these immediate details, our view extends further into the cityscape. We catch glimpses of other buildings in the distance - a testament to Istanbul's grandeur as a metropolis even during that era. This print from Alinari allows us to appreciate not only its aesthetic value but also serves as an invaluable historical document capturing a moment frozen in time. It invites us to reflect on how much has changed since then while reminding us of Istanbul's enduring beauty throughout centuries.
