Saint Irene, Istanbul

File:Hagia Irene2.jpg
Original - Hagia Irene in Istanbul (late 19th century)
Reason
High resolution encyclopedic picture of the first Christian church built in Constantinople. More recent pictures have more trees and, erm, stuff around the church and don't give as clear a view of the building.
Articles this image appears in
Constantine I and Christianity, Hagia Eirene
Creator
Sébah & Joaillier, photographers. Restored by Michel Vuijlsteke.

  • Weak Oppose Yeah there are trees and stuff now, but I'm not convinced that a good, modern photo is impossible. The one in Hagia Irene isn't too bad, and the color really brings this place to life. Makeemlighter (talk) 06:22, 2 April 2009 (UTC)
