Title
View of Constantinople from Eyüp
Description
English: It's a painting made by Amedeo Preziosi. It is a landscape with pale colours. It also make sense for its showing a graveyard. I think, this photo is really important to see Istanbul's rich heritage.Currently it is like that, because when all the city changes, there is one certain thing which does not change is, graveyards! and it is in everywhere in Istanbul. In addition, those different shape of tombstones gives us some informations about the jobs of people who died. I think, it is a very considerable art piece to be seen by people who want to get the deep view of the Istanbul
