Drawing from the 1579 History of Sultan Süleyman (CB T 413) and a c. 1620 album of calligraphy and paintings (CB T 439) made in Ottoman Istanbul for a private citizen, this tour will focus on the use of the urban space of Istanbul. Highlights will include the imperial Topkapi Palace and the Süleymaniye mosque complex, as well as residential quarters, coffee houses, and gardens for relaxation and entertainment.
