Couleurs De La Corne D'or : Peintres Voyageurs De La Sublime Porte

While the 16th and 17th century infatuation with the Orient was based on the imagination, from the 18th century onwards, artists' travels multiplied. From the Egyptian campaign onwards and throughout the 19th century, French and British painters played an active role in the discovery of Turkey. This book offers a journey to the Golden Horn.
