EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning print captures the timeless beauty of Ortaky shoreline near the Old Bosphorus Bridge in Istanbul, Turkey. The image, taken around 1975, showcases the serene waters of the Bosphorus strait and the iconic silhouette of the bridge in the background.
The Ortaky shoreline is a place where history and natural beauty converge, with centuries-old architecture blending seamlessly with picturesque landscapes. In this photograph, we see a glimpse of daily life along the waterfront, as boats gently glide across the water and locals go about their day against a backdrop of historic buildings.
The soft hues and gentle light captured in this image evoke a sense of tranquility and nostalgia. It's as if time has stood still in this moment frozen in time by The Peter Butt Aviation Collection.
As we gaze upon this scene from decades past, we are reminded of the enduring allure of Istanbul – a city that has long been a crossroads between East and West. The Ortaky shoreline serves as a reminder of Istanbul's rich cultural heritage and its unique position at the intersection of continents.
This print is not just a visual record but also an invitation to immerse ourselves in the beauty and history of one of Turkey's most beloved destinations.
