EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the scene at Rumili Hissar, also known as Chateau Kilid-ul-Bahr, located in the historic region of the Dardanelles in Turkey. Circa 1900, the image transports us back in time as we witness a group of travelling musicians entertaining the locals in the courtyard of this magnificent fortress. The Chateau Kilid-ul-Bahr, or Castle of the Sea, is a historic landmark that has stood guard over the Dardanelles Strait since the 15th century. Its strategic location at the entrance to the Bosphorus and the Sea of Marmara made it a coveted prize for various empires throughout history. The photograph showcases the rich cultural heritage of the region, as the musicians play traditional tunes on their instruments. The intricate details of the Chateau's architecture are evident in the image, with its towering walls, arched windows, and intricate tilework. The scene is further enhanced by the lush greenery that surrounds the fortress, providing a beautiful contrast to the rugged terrain and clear blue waters of the Dardanelles. This photograph offers a glimpse into the past, providing a window into the history and traditions of the Dardanelles region. The travelling musicians add an element of joy and celebration, reminding us of the enduring power of music to bring people together. The image is a testament to the beauty and richness of Turkey's historical and cultural heritage, making it a must-see destination for history buffs, photographers, and travellers alike.
