EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving depicts the Gate of Charisius, also known as Edirnekapi or Adrianople Gate, in the historic city of Constantinople, now Istanbul, Turkey. The image, created by the skilled hands of Lemaitre, Vormser, and Fonnstecher, is taken from the comprehensive work "Historia de Turquia" by Joseph Marie Jouannin and Jules Van Gaver, published in 1840. The Gate of Charisius is a significant Byzantine monument, showcasing the rich urbanism and architectural heritage of Constantinople during the Byzantine and Ottoman Empires. The gate is located in the land walls of Constantinople, which were built to protect the city from external invasions. The scene illustrates the daily life of the people, with a group of Turks and Ottomans passing through the gate, while a minaret and a dome can be seen in the background, reflecting the influence of Islam on the urban landscape. The Gate of Charisius is a testament to the defensive structures that once fortified the city, with its imposing door and the intricate designs on its surface. The polyandrion, or multiple-headed, dome at the top of the gate is a distinctive feature, adding to its grandeur and historical significance. This engraving offers a glimpse into the past, transporting us back to an era of cultural exchange, architectural innovation, and the interplay of various religious and ethnic influences that shaped the urban fabric of Constantinople.
