Ippolito Caffi's 1843 painting "Constantinople (Now Istanbul), the Hippodrome" depicts a sweeping view of the historic Hippodrome in Istanbul, Turkey. The cityscape, bathed in the warm glow of a setting sun, showcases the city's iconic minarets and ancient monuments, including the Obelisk of Theodosius. This evocative oil painting captures the blend of ancient and modern in Constantinople, a testament to the city's rich history and enduring appeal.
