''Constantinople of Today'' is a travelogue written by the French author and poet, Theophile Gautier. Originally published in 1854, the book provides a vivid and detailed account of Gautier’s journey to Constantinople (now Istanbul), the capital city of the Ottoman Empire. Gautier’s writing style is descriptive and poetic, painting a picture of the city’s architecture, people, and customs. He explores the city’s many mosques, bazaars, and palaces, and provides insights into the daily lives of its inhabitants. Gautier’s observations are informed by his knowledge of history and art, making this book not just a travelogue, but also a cultural and historical document. ''Constantinople of Today'' is a fascinating read for anyone interested in the history, culture, and architecture of Istanbul, and the Ottoman Empire.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
