The most comprehensive published collection of early postcards depicting Istanbul's Byzantine monuments, this lavishly illustrated album includes over a hundred views of the city at the turn of the century. More than just curiosities or collectors' items, the cards provide a visual record of the transformation of Istanbul and its ancient sites--documenting the removal and restoration of buildings, the devastation of the great 1894 earthquake, and historic events such as the opening of the Ottoman parliament on 17 December 1908. |
