Studioportret van een man met snor en een vlinderdas c. 1863 - 1866

This carte de visite photograph, taken by the Abdullah Frères studio in the 1860s, depicts a man with a mustache and bow tie. The studio, founded in 1858 in Egypt by two Armenian brothers, was known for capturing portraits of prominent figures. The photograph, now part of the Rijksmuseum's collection, showcases the popular format of the carte de visite in the mid-19th century, which allowed individuals to share their image with others. The photograph, likely taken in Egypt, reflects the studio's focus on capturing the society and culture of the time.
