Beschreibung

Artist: William bartlet Engraved By: J. Cousen. The view of Constantinople from Scutari, situated on the Asian side of the Bosporus, encapsulates a captivating panorama that echoes centuries of historical and cultural significance. Once the capital of the Byzantine and Ottoman Empires, Constantinople's iconic structures, including the Hagia Sophia and the Blue Mosque, create a distinctive skyline along the European shore. Scutari, with its own rich history, stands as a witness on the Asian side, offering a unique vantage point across the Bosporus Strait. This view has not only been a witness to conquests and changes in rule but has also been immortalized in various cultural and artistic depictions. Approximate Overall Size: 10 1/2 ins x 8 ins.
