This is a cabinet card photograph of Naser ed-Din Shah Qajar, the Shah of Persia, taken by the renowned London-based photographic studio Elliott & Fry between 1860 and 1875. The Shah is seated in a chair, wearing traditional Persian attire, including a black cap and a richly ornamented robe. The photograph is a fine example of 19th-century portraiture and is a testament to the artistic talent of Elliott & Fry, renowned for their work in capturing the likenesses of prominent figures of the era. The photograph provides a glimpse into the Shah's attire and the visual culture of Persia during the mid-19th century.
