Oscar Andreae (fl.1860-1880)
Kiosk on the Bosphorus
Pencil drawing
Dated 4 April 1866
13 x 19.5cm approx.
Andreae spent much of the 1860s exploring Europe – the invention of the railways having made undertaking a Grand Tour rather easier than it had been half a century earlier – and recorded the places he visited. Here he is in Turkey, recording a Kiosk – or Köşkü – on the shores of the Bosphorus, the strait of water in northwestern Turkey that links the Black Sea to the Mediterranean.
