The French Military Barracks, outside Pera,1854. Creator: Unknown.

The French Military Barracks, outside Pera, 1854. Army quarters in Turkey during the Crimean War. 'This fine building was erected for a medical school, and was used as such until recently, when the Turks have permitted the French to use it as a Military Hospital. It is finely situated on the top of Dolmabagdsche-hill, and commands a splendid prospect of the Golden Horn...You can also see up the Bosphorus a considerable distance. The burying-gronnd at the back of it is an Armenian one ; but no one need fear its proximity, for, although travelers talk about the thick mist which hangs over the burying-grounds here, the reality is quite different. This one in particular is much resorted to as a promenade. At the foot of this hill is the Sultan's new palace, a small portion of which is visible in the Sketch'. From "Illustrated London News", 1854.
