Commentary

Sainte-Sophie est un basilique chrétienne bâtie au IVe siècle à Constantinople. Au VIe siècle, l’empereur byzantin Justinien ordonne sa reconstruction et lui donne sa physionomie actuelle. Après la prise de la ville (rebaptisée Istanbul) en 1453, elle est convertie en mosquée.
Hagia Sophia is a Christian basilica built in the 4th century in Constantinople. In the 6th century, the Byzantine Emperor Justinian ordered its reconstruction and gave it its current appearance. After the capture of the city (renamed Istanbul) in 1453, it was converted into a mosque.
