Horse Bazaar, at Constantinople, 1854. Creator: Unknown
Horse Bazaar, at Constantinople, 1854. Scene during the Crimean War. One of the busy scenes in the Turkish capital during the encampment of the British troops in the suburbs, was the Horse Bazaar, sketched by our Artist. It is, certainly, a much more picturesque affair than our large building in Baker-street [in London]. The scene represented is a small square, with groups of Turks, smoking; in the foreground are British officers bargaining for and trying horses, mules, &c. About the square are houses which serve for stables...'. From "Illustrated London News", 1854

EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, titled "Horse Bazaar, at Constantinople, 1854," transports us back in time to the bustling scene of the Turkish capital during the Crimean War. The image, created by an unknown artist for the "Illustrated London News," showcases the vibrant energy and cultural richness of the Horse Bazaar. The photograph captures a small square teeming with activity. In the foreground, groups of Turks, dressed in traditional garb and smoking pipes, mingle with British officers who are intently bargaining for horses, mules, and other equines. The horses, with their regal postures and proud demeanor, add to the allure of the scene. Surrounding the square are houses that double as stables, their doors open to reveal more animals waiting to be sold. The atmosphere is lively and bustling, with the sounds of haggling and the clatter of hooves creating a symphony of activity. The Horse Bazaar stands in stark contrast to the large building in Baker-street in London, offering a much more picturesque and authentic experience. The scene is a testament to the rich cultural exchange that took place during this period, with the British soldiers immersing themselves in the local traditions and commerce. The photograph, which is in black and white, captures the essence of the time, transporting us back to the 19th century and the events of the Crimean War. The image is a valuable historical document, offering a glimpse into the past and the unique experiences of a bygone era.
