EDITORS COMMENTS
In this evocative image from the 1850s, we are transported back in time to the School of Sultan Hassan in Istanbul, Turkey. The School, an architectural marvel of the Ottoman Empire, is seen in all its grandeur with its imposing columns and intricate stonework. The scene takes place in one of the classrooms, where a tutor is imparting knowledge to a group of eager young boys. The room is adorned with a beautiful Persian carpet, adding a touch of warmth and comfort to the otherwise bare stone walls. The boys, dressed in traditional Turkish attire, sit cross-legged on the floor, their heads bowed in concentration as they listen intently to their teacher. The tutor, wearing a turban and a long robe, sits on a raised platform at the front of the room, his hands gesturing animatedly as he explains a concept. The boys' shoes are neatly arranged at the entrance of the room, a sign of respect and orderliness. The atmosphere in the room is one of focused learning, with the only sounds being the tutor's voice and the occasional shuffling of papers. The School of Sultan Hassan was renowned for its high-quality education, attracting students from all corners of the Ottoman Empire and beyond. This scene captures the essence of the educational institution, with its dedicated teachers and eager students, all striving for knowledge and wisdom. The photograph, taken circa 1850, provides us with a rare glimpse into the past, allowing us to witness a moment in time that has long since passed. The School of Sultan Hassan, with its rich history and architectural beauty, continues to be a source of fascination for scholars and tourists alike, a testament to the enduring legacy of the Ottoman Empire.
