19th-century Italian Painters
The 19th (nineteenth) century began on 1 January 1801 ( MDCCCI), and ended on 31 December 1900 ( MCM). The 19th century was the ninth century of the 2nd millennium. The 19th century was characterized by vast social upheaval. Slavery was abolished in much of Europe and the Americas. The First Industrial Revolution, though it began in the late 18th century, expanding beyond its British homeland for the first time during this century, particularly remaking the economies and societies of the Low Countries, the Rhineland, Northern Italy, and the Northeastern United States. A few decades later, the Second Industrial Revolution led to ever more massive urbanization and much higher levels of productivity, profit, and prosperity, a pattern that continued into the 20th century. The Islamic gunpowder empires fell into decline and European imperialism brought much of South Asia, Southeast Asia, and almost all of Africa under colonial rule. It was also marked by the collapse of the large ...

Beyoğlu
Beyoğlu (, ota, بك‌اوغلی, script=Arab) is a district on the European side of İstanbul, Turkey, separated from the old city (historic peninsula of Constantinople) by the Golden Horn. It was known as the region of Pera (Πέρα, meaning "Beyond" in Greek language, Greek) surrounding the ancient coastal town Galata which faced Constantinople across the Horn. Beyoğlu continued to be named Pera during the Middle Ages and, in western languages, into the early 20th century. According to the prevailing theory, the Turkish name of Pera, ''Beyoğlu'', is a modification by folk etymology of the Republic of Venice, Venetian title of ''Bailo of Constantinople, Bailo'', whose mansion was the grandest structure in this quarter. The informal Turkish-language title ''Bey Oğlu'' (literally ''Son of a Bey'') was originally used by the Ottoman Empire, Ottoman Turks to describe Lodovico Gritti, Istanbul-born son of Andrea Gritti, who was the Venetian Bailo of Constantinople during the ...

Le Stamboul
''Le Stamboul'' was a French language newspaper published from Constantinople, the entirety of which is now known as Istanbul, in the Ottoman Empire and then in Turkey from 1875 to 1962. It was the leading French newspaper in the city. As of the beginning of the 20th century it was estimated to have a daily circulation of around 5,000. The founders of the paper were Irish brothers, John Laffan Hanly and Baron Henry Laffan Hanly. The latter was the director and the former was the founding editor. Pierre Le Goff was one of the editors-in-chief of the paper which was published six days per week. The name "Stamboul", the rendering of "Istanbul" used in French, referred to the portion of the city in the old city walls and not the entire city; the name "Istanbul" became used for the entire city in Turkish post-1923, and the new Republican Turkish government requested foreign embassies and companies switch to Istanbul in 1930. In 1934 the paper was also renamed as ''Istanbul''. See also ...
