"Constantinople, View of the Golden Horn with a Self-Portrait of the Artist Sketching" is a notable 19th-century painting by the renowned Russian-Armenian marine artist Ivan Konstantinovich Aivazovsky. Created in 1886, this work is a testament to Aivazovsky's fascination with seascapes and his mastery in capturing the interplay of light and water. The painting depicts a panoramic view of the Golden Horn, the historic inlet of the Bosphorus in Istanbul, with the city's skyline rising in the background. Notably, Aivazovsky includes a self-portrait within the composition, showing himself in the act of sketching the very scene viewers behold, thus adding a layer of meta-narrative to the work.

Aivazovsky's portrayal of Constantinople (modern-day Istanbul) is imbued with the romanticism characteristic of his oeuvre, showcasing his adept use of color and his ability to render the transient effects of sunlight on the water's surface. The inclusion of his self-portrait is a rare feature in his body of work, providing insight into his artistic process and personal connection to the landscape he so often painted.

This painting is one of the numerous works Aivazovsky produced during his travels to Constantinople, a city that held great significance for him both culturally and artistically. "Constantinople, View of the Golden Horn with a Self-Portrait of the Artist Sketching" is not only a reflection of Aivazovsky's personal experiences but also serves as a historical record of the city's appearance during the late Ottoman period. The artwork remains an important piece within Aivazovsky's extensive catalog and continues to be celebrated for its historical value and artistic excellence.
