EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving from 1855 showcases the magnificent French fleet as it gracefully passes through the Bosphorus, between Scutari and Constantinople (now Istanbul). The artist skillfully captures this historic moment, transporting us back to November 12th of that year. The intricate illustrative technique employed in this engraved image brings to life the grandeur and significance of this event. The French fleet, with its formidable presence, dominates the scene against a backdrop of scenic beauty. This snapshot into history allows us to marvel at the power and elegance of these naval vessels as they navigate through one of Turkey's most iconic waterways. The Victorian-era charm exuded by this engraving adds an extra layer of fascination. Its vintage aesthetic takes us on a journey back in time, immersing us in the artistry and culture prevalent during the 19th century. It serves as a reminder not only of historical events but also of artistic techniques that have stood the test of time.

They capture moments frozen in time while simultaneously offering glimpses into different eras and cultures. Let this enchanting piece transport you to a bygone era where naval might met artistic mastery on the shores of Istanbul's ancient waterscape.
