EDITORS COMMENTS
The haunting image captured in this historical print titled "Night Watchman crying Fire" transports us back to the bustling streets of Constantinople, now modern-day Istanbul. In a city plagued by continual fires, only the wealthiest merchants and Pashas could afford stone houses, leaving many vulnerable to the destructive flames that ravaged their homes.
In this scene, a lone night watchman is seen crying out "Fire!" as he desperately tries to alert residents and prevent further devastation. His anguished expression speaks volumes about the fear and helplessness felt by those tasked with protecting the city from such disasters.
The flickering flames in the background serve as a stark reminder of the constant threat faced by the people of Constantinople during this tumultuous time in history. The chaos and destruction caused by these fires were not just physical but also emotional, leaving deep scars on the community.
