Photographer's Note

Prayer time in Eminönü Mosque.
Construction of the Mosque began in 1597, commissioned by Sultan Mehmet III’s mother, Valide Sultan Safiye. However, following the death of the Sultan and several other setbacks, it was left idle for many years until finally being completed in 1663.
