EDITORS COMMENTS
Constantinople, a breathtaking masterpiece capturing the essence of urban beauty and natural splendor. This exquisite print by John MacWhirter takes us on a journey through time and space, transporting us to the enchanting cityscape of 19th century Istanbul. With meticulous detail and delicate brushstrokes, MacWhirter skillfully combines pencil and watercolor techniques, heightened with white accents, to create a captivating scene. The elevated view showcases the hilly terrain of Constantinople, where rivers meander through the landscape towards a distant horizon over land. The artist's European background shines through in his ability to capture the unique charm of this Middle Eastern metropolis. From the bustling streets below to the vast expanse of sky above, every element is infused with vibrant colors that evoke a sense of liveliness and energy. As we gaze upon this artwork, we are transported outdoors into an idyllic natural space bathed in daylight. The play between light and shadow creates depth and dimension within each stroke. It is as if we can feel the warmth of the sun on our skin as we immerse ourselves in this scenic vista. MacWhirter's talent lies not only in his technical prowess but also in his ability to convey emotion through art. Through his skilled hand, he invites us to explore Constantinople's rich history while simultaneously appreciating its timeless beauty. This remarkable piece serves as a testament to MacWhirter's status as one of Scotland's finest artists. Its inclusion in private collections further solidifies its significance within British art history.
