Salonica, the Scene of the Massacre of the German and French Consuls, 1876. Creator: Unknown
Salonica, the Scene of the Massacre of the German and French Consuls, 1876....view of the Turkish seaport town of Salonica, from a sketch by Sir John Cowell...The funeral of the Consuls took place in an orderly manner. Among persons in Germany and France connected by mercantile business with the Levant this unhappy event has caused very great uneasiness. If such an outrage can occur in a half-Europeanised town, at a port and commercial emporium of some importance, the life and property of the Franks [ie Europeans], it is thought, cannot be very safe in any part of Turkey...for such a deed to have been possible in a place so little Turkish in itself and so easily accessible to European interference, is a proof that the ruling race of the Ottoman empire must have been powerfully excited by the events of the last few months'. From "Illustrated London News", 1876
