View of the Hagia Sophia, showing the church-mosque's large dome and four minarets, partially obscured by a number of multi-story wooden buildings in the foreground. A number of people are sitting on the ground on the lower right area of the image, while a covered cart can be seen to the left. This view is seen from the former Hippodrome of Constantinople.
