EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "View of the Bosporus entering from the Black Sea, from the Nuremberg Chronicle" takes us back in time to 1493. Created by Hartmann Schedel, a renowned German artist of the 15th century, this woodblock masterpiece showcases his exceptional talent and attention to detail. The image transports us to Constantinople, now known as Istanbul, where we witness a bustling scene filled with maritime activity. Ships gracefully navigate through the narrow strait, while a majestic castle stands proudly on one side. The landscape is adorned with charming houses and churches that dot the shoreline. As our eyes wander further into the distance, we catch sight of several islands known as Princes Islands. These idyllic spots offer a serene escape amidst nature's beauty. Aerial views reveal an intricate network of bridges connecting different parts of this enchanting city. The photograph captures not only historical landmarks but also provides insight into daily life during that era. We can imagine people dwelling in these housing structures along the Bosphorus channel and marvel at their resilience against turbulent times. This stunning piece serves as a visual testament to both architectural wonders and natural splendor present in Istanbul centuries ago. It reminds us of how cities evolve over time yet retain their unique charm throughout history.
