At the time, Lewis himself had not yet traveled to Constantinople. The small dots in each of the print's corners are alignment pinholes used in the lithograph's printing and are not defects. Some foxing and toning to the edges, but the print itself is in excellent condition. Print size: 10-1/4 x 13-1/2 inches; sheet size: 11-1/4 x 14-1/2 inches. See less
