EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "St. Sophia from the Hippodrome, Constantinople" transports us back to 1855 in Turkey. The image, attributed to Felice Beato and possibly captured by James Robertson, showcases their exceptional talent for capturing historical landmarks. The photograph depicts the iconic St. Sophia (Hagia Sophia) standing proudly against the backdrop of the bustling Hippodrome in Constantinople (now Istanbul). The grandeur of this architectural masterpiece is beautifully showcased through this salted paper print. Measuring 24.1 x 30.5 cm, this exquisite piece offers a glimpse into a bygone era when Constantinople was at its zenith as an imperial capital. The intricate details and impeccable composition make it evident that both Robertson and Beato possessed an extraordinary eye for photography. As we admire this remarkable work of art, we are transported to a time where horse-drawn carriages filled the streets surrounding St. Sophia's awe-inspiring domes and minarets. It serves as a testament to the rich history and cultural significance of Istanbul. This print from Liszt Collection allows us to appreciate not only the technical skill involved but also provides a window into one of humanity's most cherished architectural marvels set amidst a vibrant cityscape centuries ago.
