CORNUCOPIA Issue 50, 2013

Cornucopia Magazine is een Engelstalige uitgave.

Issue 50 highlights:
Istanbul is on the cusp of irreversible change, its great heritage under threat. But it remains a city that enthralls. This special issue, the first in a four-part series of connoisseurs’ guides, celebrates the Ottoman and Byzantine legacy of the Old City and the Golden Horn, with in-depth descriptions of Topkap? Palace, Ayasofya and a quarter by quarter guide to all the other major monuments, shrines and museums, from the Landwalls to the rarely visited palace of Aynal?kavak Kasr?, plus restaurants, meyhanes, cafés and the Grand Bazaar’s most rewarding shops. The photographs in this invaluable companion to the city are by Fritz von der Schulenburg

Published twice a year, Cornucopia is the magazine for connoisseurs of Turkey. This independent publication – gorgeous enough for the coffee table, serious enough to be found in academic libraries – is an ever-growing compendium of all things Turkish: history, culture, art, food, travel.

The arbiter of taste Tyler Brûlé has called Cornucopia in the FT ‘a cross between The World of Interiors and National Geographic, with a gentle Turkic twist’. For The New York Review of Magazines, ‘It’s a truism that the measure of a travel magazine’s success is whether it makes you yearn to visit the destinations it depicts. Cornucopia goes one better. It is a vacation in itself.’ For the blog Quintessence, ‘Cornucopia is indeed an apt name for this publication of plenty, overflowing with Turkish beauty, inspiration and edification.’
