EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite portrait captures the elegance and refinement of a European woman residing in Constantinople during the late 19th century. The photograph was taken by the renowned Abdullah Freres, a leading court portrait photography studio based in Pera, the European quarter of Istanbul, Turkey. Established in the mid-19th century, the Freres brothers were known for their exceptional skill in capturing the likenesses of the city's elite, both Turkish and European. The woman in this portrait exudes an air of wealth and sophistication, her dark eyes gazing directly at the viewer with a confident and enigmatic expression. Her elaborate hairstyle, adorned with pearls and intricate braids, is a testament to the time and effort devoted to maintaining her appearance. Her fashionable attire, with its high collar and ornate detailing, is indicative of the European fashion trends that were popular among the wealthy expatriate community in Constantinople during this period. This portrait offers a fascinating glimpse into the rich cultural tapestry of Constantinople during the late Ottoman Empire, a time when European influence was at its height. The Freres studio played a significant role in documenting this historical period, capturing the likenesses of many prominent figures from European and Turkish society. This fine portrait is a reminder of the enduring allure of Constantinople, a city that continues to captivate visitors with its unique blend of history, culture, and beauty.
