Constantinople

Grosvenor, Edwin A. (Edwin Augustus), 1845-1936 · 1895 · Boston : Roberts Brothers · 37 pictures

Constantinople, a book by Edwin A. Grosvenor published in Boston by Roberts Brothers in 1895, is a travel and architectural survey of the Ottoman city written for an American general readership. The pictures are sepia-toned photographic views, shown rotated on the page, of rooftops and cypress-lined hillsides, underground cistern arches, a waterfront town, and an ornate wrought-iron balcony, useful to a designer for Ottoman street scenes and historic stone and ironwork textures.
