Louis Chalon (French, 1866–1940) an Orientalist Landscape of the Golden Horn C.
About the Item
Louis Chalon (French, 1866–1940) An Orientalist Landscape Painting of The Golden Horn, Bosphorus, Istanbul, with views of The Suleymaniye Mosque with the Galata Tower, Constantinople
Oil on Canvas, circa 1900.
The Golden Horn is a major urban waterway and the primary inlet of the Bosphorus in Istanbul, Turkey. As a natural estuary that connects with the Bosphorus Strait at the point where the strait meets the Sea of Marmara, the waters of the Golden Horn help define the northern boundary of the peninsula constituting “Old Istanbul” (ancient Byzantium and Constantinople), the tip of which is the promontory of Sarayburnu, or Seraglio Point. This estuarial inlet geographically separates the historic center of Istanbul from the rest of the city, and forms a horn shape, sheltered harbor that in the course of history has protected Greek, Roman, Byzantine, Ottoman and other maritime trade ships for thousands of years.
Throughout its history, the Golden Horn has witnessed many tumultuous historical incidents, and has been depicted in numerous works of art.
The Suleymaniye Mosque is an Ottoman imperial mosque located on the Third Hill of Istanbul, Turkey. The mosque was commissioned by Suleiman the Magnificent and designed by the imperial architect Mimar Sinan.
Louis Chalon studied painting with Jules Lefebre and Boulanger, and began his artistic career as an illustrator. In 1898 he created a series of trompe l’oeil illustrations for porcelain. In 1900 he became known for his drawings in newspapers including LeFigaro and La Vie Parisienne. He also created objects including inkwells, vases, clocks and furniture and lamps. He was especially prolific in his depictions of women.
He exhibited at the Paris Salons from 1898-1911 as a painter, illustrator and sculptor and also at the 1900 Paris Universal Exhibition.Was a member of the Society of French Artists.
