The artist, H Bibby, skillfully captures the essence of this historic capital city with its vibrant harbor and water transport. The intricate engravings showcase a myriad of boats gracefully gliding through the coastal waters, symbolizing the importance of maritime trade in this thriving metropolis. The cityscape itself is awe-inspiring, revealing a blend of Byzantine architecture and Turkish influence that has shaped Istanbul's unique identity throughout history. As we delve into this monochrome masterpiece, we are transported to a time when Constantinople was at the crossroads between East and West. Published as part of "England's Battles by Sea and Land".

This publication serves as both an educational resource and a visual delight for those seeking to explore historical events from the 19th century. Through this print, we can appreciate not only the artistic talent of H Bibby but also gain insight into how transportation played a vital role in shaping Istanbul's development as a major port city.
