EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, titled "R J Levi, Constantinople" takes us on a visual journey to the late 19th century. Captured by an American photographer, it showcases the rich diversity of global cultures through its variety of costumes and striking contrasts. The image is part of a private collection and was originally featured in Professor F W Putnam's book, "Portrait Types of the Midway Plaisance". It serves as an ethnographic study that highlights different racial types from around the world. In this particular portrait, R J Levi stands as a representative figure from Constantinople (now Istanbul), Turkey. His full head of hair and traditional Turkish attire provide insight into the clothing styles prevalent in Central Turkey during that era. The photograph not only captures Levi's individuality but also offers glimpses into both European and Middle Eastern influences on Turkish culture at the time. The intricate details of his garments speak volumes about societal norms and fashion trends within this region. As we admire this remarkable piece from Bridgeman Images' Fine Art Finder collection, we are reminded of photography's power to freeze moments in time while simultaneously providing valuable insights into historical periods. This print invites us to appreciate the beauty found in cultural diversity while encouraging exploration and understanding across borders.
