EDITORS COMMENTS
This striking image captures the historic moment when Turkish Sultan Mehmed II, clad in his grand attire and adorned with a magnificent turban, enters the conquered city of Constantinople on May 29, 1453. The six-week siege of this iconic city, then the capital of the Eastern Roman Empire, marked the end of the Byzantine Empire and the beginning of the Ottoman Empire in Europe. The fall of Constantinople was a pivotal event in world history, signaling the decline of the Byzantine Empire and the rise of the Ottoman Empire under the leadership of Sultan Mehmed II. The siege was a long and arduous one, with the Turkish forces relentlessly attacking the city's walls and fortifications. The Byzantine defenders, despite their valiant efforts, were ultimately unable to withstand the Ottoman onslaught. As the Turkish forces breached the city's walls, Sultan Mehmed II led his troops into the city, marking the beginning of Ottoman rule. The image of the Sultan entering the city triumphantly, with the Hagia Sophia cathedral in the background, is a powerful symbol of the Ottoman conquest of Constantinople and the beginning of a new chapter in world history. This photograph, from the extensive collection of Mary Evans Picture Library, provides a glimpse into the past and offers a visual representation of one of the most significant events in Turkish and European history. The image, with its rich details and historical significance, is a must-have for history enthusiasts, educators, and anyone interested in the fascinating story of the Siege of Constantinople and the Ottoman Empire.
