Constantinople 1453

Some years ago I visited Istanbul. A great place for a hstorian! Here they had a new museum with a Panorama-painting about the siege of 1453.







Or another painting from the Askeri Museum



Now I stumpled over this blog here with a very nice little diorama. See photos like these on the link.

  3. That "little" diorama is 196cm x 76cm with 325 figures :)
    Only 90m of 22km Constantinople walls (Golden horn walls 5.5 km, land walls 7.5 km, Marmara Sea walls 9 km)
