EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative black-and-white photograph transports us back in time to the Princes Islands of Istanbul, specifically Buyukada, the largest of the nine islands in the Sea of Marmara. Once a place of exile for Byzantine Empresses, Buyukada has since become a beloved summer retreat for the wealthy inhabitants of Constantinople, now known as Istanbul. The serene waters and picturesque waterfront have remained unchanged since the 1950s, as seen in this image taken in 1957. The scene captures the quaint charm of a lokanta, or local restaurant, nestled along the edge of the island. The terrace, adorned with colorful awnings, offers a respite from the sun as patrons enjoy their meals. Seagulls glide overhead, adding a touch of whimsy to the idyllic setting. The Ottoman-era architecture, with its intricate details and elegant lines, is a testament to the rich history of this fascinating place. As we gaze upon this image, we are transported back to a simpler time, where the rhythm of life moves at a slower pace, and the beauty of nature takes center stage. The Princes Islands of Istanbul, with their timeless allure, continue to captivate visitors from around the world, offering a glimpse into the past while providing a peaceful escape from the hustle and bustle of modern life.
