EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a physical map of the Ottoman Empire, dating back to approximately 1915. Created by an unknown artist, this detailed map offers a glimpse into the geographical features and territories encompassed by the empire during that time. The map encompasses vast regions including the eastern Mediterranean, Cyprus, the Middle East, parts of Egypt, and what is now modern-day Turkey. It highlights prominent landmarks such as the rivers Tigris and Euphrates, which played significant roles in shaping ancient civilizations. Additionally, trade routes like the Royal Road are depicted alongside mountain ranges and deserts that characterized these lands. Lt. -Col. Sir Mark Sykes provides historical context to this remarkable piece through his book "The Caliphs Last Heritage: A Short History of the Turkish Empire". Published in London by Macmillan & Co in 1915, Sykes' work sheds light on various aspects of this influential empire's legacy. As we gaze upon this monochromatic image captured by The Print Collector from Heritage Images collection, we are transported back in time to an era when empires reigned supreme and borders were defined differently than they are today. This photograph serves as a testament to both human curiosity about our past and our desire to understand how geography has shaped our world throughout history.
