EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures the Turkish Steamship Ertogrul, an imperial vessel named after Ertugrul Gazi, the father of Osman I, the founder of the Ottoman Empire. Anchored gracefully in the Bosphorus, this historical steamship showcases the harmonious blend of the old and the new in Turkish maritime history. The Ertogrul, although a steamship, still retains the high masts for sails, reflecting the rich naval traditions of the Ottoman Empire. The Ertogrul's impressive silhouette against the backdrop of the Bosphorus Strait is a sight to behold. The steamship's life boats and funnels add to its distinctive features, making it a remarkable sight in the waters of Istanbul. This photograph offers a glimpse into the grandeur and majesty of the Ottoman Imperial Fleet during the late 19th or early 20th century. The Bosphorus, a strategically important waterway connecting the Black Sea to the Sea of Marmara and the Mediterranean, has been a vital trade and military route for centuries. The Ertogrul's presence in these waters underscores the historical significance of the Ottoman Empire and its naval prowess. This photograph is a testament to the rich maritime history of Turkey and the Ottoman Empire. It invites us to reflect on the past and appreciate the evolution of Turkish naval power from the era of sail to the age of steam. The Ertogrul, with its proud masts and modern steam engines, stands as a symbol of the enduring legacy of the Ottoman Empire in Turkish history.
