EDITORS COMMENTS
This historic photograph captures the grand opening of the Turkish Parliament in Istanbul, with Sultan Abdul Hamid II (1842-1918) presiding in his imperial box, surrounded by the majesty of the Ottoman Court. The Sultan, who ruled from August 31, 1876, until his deposition on April 27, 1909, is seen delivering the Royal Speech to the assembled members of the new parliament. The balcony on the upper right is filled with diplomats from various nations, observing the proceedings as representatives of their governments. During Sultan Abdul Hamid II's reign, the Ottoman Empire began a period of decline in power and extent. He ruled with absolute power, making him the last Ottoman Sultan to do so. The establishment of a parliament was an attempt to modernize the empire and address the political and economic challenges it faced. However, the Sultan's autocratic rule and the political instability of the time would ultimately lead to his downfall. This photograph offers a glimpse into the historical significance of the opening of the Turkish Parliament and the imperial majesty of the Ottoman Court. The diplomats on the balcony represent the international community's interest in the Ottoman Empire and its political developments. The image is a testament to the grandeur and complexity of the Ottoman Empire during a pivotal moment in its history.
