EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph transports us back in time to the ancient city of Istanbul, Turkey. The image showcases the majestic Valens Aqueduct, a remarkable architectural feat completed during the reign of Byzantine Emperor Valens in the 4th century A. D. The aqueduct's grandeur is evident as it stretches across the frame, its towering arches standing tall against the backdrop of a late 19th-century skyline. The stone structure stands as a testament to both human ingenuity and historical significance. Photographed by Abdullah Freres around 1890, this print captures not only the physical beauty of the aqueduct but also offers us a glimpse into Turkish history. Men can be seen walking along its base, adding scale and perspective to this monumental relic from antiquity. As we observe this turn-of-the-century snapshot, our imaginations are sparked with thoughts of bustling streets filled with merchants and traders going about their daily lives beneath these impressive stone walls. It reminds us that even after centuries have passed since its construction, this aqueduct remains an enduring symbol of Istanbul's rich heritage. This stunning piece from Granger Art on Demand allows us to appreciate not only its artistic value but also serves as an archaeological window into a bygone era. Let it transport you back through time and immerse yourself in the wonders of ancient architecture and cultural legacy.
