EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning print captures the beauty and history of Izmit, Turkey, showcasing the new Clock Tower and Palace Gardens in all their glory. Formerly known as Nicomedia, this city has a rich past as the Eastern capital of the Roman Empire from 286-324 AD. Founded in 712 BC, Izmit has seen its fair share of challenges, including the devastating 1999 Earthquake that claimed over 19,000 lives and left many homeless.
Despite these hardships, Izmit continues to stand strong and is slowly but surely recovering from the aftermath of this natural disaster. The city's harbor serves as a reminder of its importance as a key location in Turkey, located just 87 km southeast of Istanbul.
As you gaze upon this image, you can't help but be transported back in time to when Izmit was an imperial stronghold with a vibrant history. The juxtaposition of ancient Roman ruins with modern structures like the Clock Tower is truly captivating.
This print is not just a visual feast for the eyes; it's also a poignant reminder of resilience and strength in the face of adversity. Izmit may have been shaken by tragedy in 1999, but it continues to rise from the ashes like a phoenix, ready to embrace its future while honoring its past.
