EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the Turkish Floating Dock in the Bosphorus Straits, a historic site that once served as the home of the SMS Goeben, a German light cruiser that played a pivotal role in World War One. The Goeben, which entered the Ottoman Navy in 1914 under the name Yavuz Sultan Selim, is depicted here anchored at the dock, surrounded by traditional rowing boats and ferryboats. The Bosphorus Straits, a vital waterway connecting the Black Sea to the Sea of Marmara and the Mediterranean, have long been a symbol of Turkish history and culture. This photograph, taken in 1923, provides a glimpse into the past, showcasing the rich maritime heritage of Turkey and the Ottoman Empire. The SMS Goeben, which was the former flagship of the German Imperial Navy, was a formidable warship that helped tip the balance of power in the Balkans during World War One. Its acquisition by the Ottoman Navy marked a turning point in the war and strengthened the Ottoman Empire's position in the region. Today, the Yavuz Sultan Selim is remembered as a symbol of Turkish military prowess and national pride.
