The Bosphorus, with the Castles of Europe and Asia
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating 19th-century watercolor print by Thomas Allom that transports viewers to the picturesque strait of Istanbul. This exquisite artwork showcases the architectural marvels of Rumeli Hisari and Anadolu Hisari, two medieval fortresses that stand proudly on opposite shores. The attention to detail in Allom's illustration allows us to appreciate the intricate facades and grandeur of these historical landmarks. As we gaze upon this scene, our eyes are drawn to the tranquil riverbank where rowing boats gently sway in harmony with the flowing waters. The moored boats add a touch of serenity to this bustling waterway, while colorful houses along the waterfront create a vibrant backdrop against which these castles majestically rise. This print not only captures the beauty of Istanbul but also offers a glimpse into its rich history. Rumeli Hisari stands as an enduring symbol of Mehmet II's conquest before he claimed Constantinople in 1453, while Anadolu Hisari looms distantly on Asia's shore, reminding us of its significance in protecting this strategic passage. Thomas Allom's masterful depiction invites us to embark on a visual journey through time and space. It serves as a testament to his artistic prowess and deep appreciation for topographical landscapes. With each brushstroke carefully applied onto paper, Allom has immortalized this enchanting moment along "The House on the Bosphorus" allowing future generations to admire
