EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a significant moment in history - the foundation of Constantinople by Emperor Constantine the Great. With great vision and determination, Constantine transferred the imperial capital from Byzantium to this new city, which he renamed Constantinople on May 11th, 330. The drawing depicted in this print is taken from "Historische Memorabilian des In-und Auslandes" (Historical Souvenirs) by Anton Ziegler in 1840. It beautifully illustrates the grandeur and ambition behind this monumental event. The pen-drawn details bring to life the architectural marvels that adorned Constantinople during its early days. Emperor Constantine's decision to establish Constantinople as his capital had far-reaching consequences for both the Roman Empire and world history. This strategic location bridged Europe and Asia, becoming a thriving center of trade, culture, and political power for centuries to come. As we gaze upon this remarkable image, we are transported back in time to witness an empire being reborn. The private collection by Geiger showcases not only their appreciation for historical artifacts but also their commitment to preserving our rich heritage. Thanks to Bridgeman Images' dedication in bringing us these fine art prints, we can now admire and reflect upon moments like these that have shaped our world today. Let us cherish such glimpses into our past as they remind us of humanity's enduring quest for greatness.
