EDITORS COMMENTS
This enchanting engraving, taken from the 1840 publication "Historia de Turquia" by Joseph Marie Jouannin and Jules Van Gaver, offers a captivating glimpse into the grandeur of the Ottoman Empire during the 19th century. The image focuses on the Sultan's Palace at Eski Serai, located in the historic city of Adrianople, now known as Edirne, in modern-day Turkey. The palace, a masterpiece of Ottoman architecture, is depicted with intricate details, showcasing its impressive size and ornate design. The palace is surrounded by a bustling town scene, with horsemen riding through the streets and people going about their daily lives. The presence of a smokestack and chimney indicates the presence of industry, suggesting that the city was a thriving economic center. The palace itself is adorned with tall, ornate chimneys, indicating the presence of a well-functioning heating system, a testament to the palace's luxurious amenities. The engraving was produced by the skilled hands of Lemaitre, Vormser, and Fonnstecher, and the level of detail and accuracy is evident in the intricate depiction of the palace's architecture, from the intricate tile work to the delicate arches and columns. The image offers a window into a bygone era, transporting us back in time to the Ottoman Empire at the height of its power and prosperity.
