EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the breathtaking scene of the City Walls of Constantinople, also known as the Seven Towers, in the late 1910s. The ancient fortifications, a testament to the rich history and grandeur of the Ottoman Empire, stand proudly against the backdrop of the sprawling city of Istanbul, now modern-day Turkey. The tranquil image is filled with a sense of timelessness, as the city's bustling streets and markets are momentarily stilled, allowing the viewer to appreciate the majesty of the walls and towers in their full glory. The lush, green landscape beyond the walls is dotted with grazing sheep, adding a pastoral touch to the scene. The City Walls of Constantinople were first built in the 5th century AD and have undergone numerous renovations and expansions throughout history. They served as the primary defense mechanism for the city for over a thousand years, protecting it from various invaders and sieges. The Seven Towers, located at the landward side of the walls, were added in the 15th century and have since become a symbol of the city's resilience and strength. This photograph offers a glimpse into the past, transporting us back in time to an era of empires and grandeur, where the City Walls of Constantinople stood as a testament to the enduring spirit of the people who called it home.
