Landscape near Constantinople 1810 - 1883

"Landscape near Constantinople" is a pencil drawing created by Franz von Hauslab the Younger between 1810 and 1883. The artwork features a detailed, yet delicate, depiction of a landscape in and around Constantinople (present-day Istanbul). Hauslab's precise lines capture the rolling hills, trees, and water of the scene, offering a glimpse into the city's natural beauty during the 19th century. The drawing, now part of the Metropolitan Museum of Art's collection, exemplifies the artistic interest in landscape and topographical studies that characterized the period.
