Description

The stereograph contains a black and white image of men leading donkeys along a road. Several other men walk along the street and the sidewalk. The Sultan Ahmed Mosque (or the Blue Mosque), which was constructed between 1609 and 1616 during Ahmed I's reign, stands in the background. The image is adhered to a gray-colored paper card mount, and on the card's reverse documentary information appears.
