EDITORS COMMENTS
This enchanting print depicts the Triumphal Gate of Adrianople, now known as Edirne, in Turkey. Adrianople was an ancient city of great historical significance, having served as the capital of the Roman province of Moesia Inferior and later becoming part of the Ottoman Empire. The Triumphal Gate, an impressive architectural marvel, stands as a testament to the city's rich history. The print, created by the skilled hands of Lemaitre, Vormser, and Cholet, is an intricate engraving taken from the book "Historia de Turquia" by Joseph Marie Jouannin and Jules Van Gaver, published in 1840. The image showcases the grandeur of the gate, with its ornate decorations and intricate carvings. At the center, a horseman on a magnificent steed rides through the gate, adding a sense of motion and dynamism to the scene. The gate is surrounded by a bustling crowd of people, showcasing the daily life of the Ottoman Empire. The ruins of the city can be seen in the background, adding a sense of history and nostalgia to the image. The Triumphal Gate of Adrianople remains a significant landmark in Turkish history, a reminder of the city's past glory and the enduring legacy of the Ottoman Empire.
