The Palaces of Diplomacy
Part 2
The Summer Embassies of the Bosphorus
by Patricia Daunt with photographs by Fritz von der Schulenburg
When the summer heat made cool-headed diplomacy impossible, the European ambassadors to the Sublime Porte and the viceroys of Egypt retired to remarkable residences lining the Bosphorus. Today these noble monuments languish, weathered and overgrown. Patricia Daunt probes their rich diplomatic history, while Fritz von der Schulenburg captures on camera the faded glory of the buildings and their grounds.
