This studio portrait, created by the Abdullah Frères photography studio in the 1860s, showcases a man in traditional Ottoman attire, a long coat, and a fez. The photograph captures the sitter in a composed pose, holding eyeglasses, and leans against a table with a book. The Abdullah Frères, known for their photographic documentation of 19th-century Ottoman life, captured the sitter's dignified presence through this portrait, offering a glimpse into the fashion and social customs of the time. The photograph, now housed in the Rijksmuseum, serves as a valuable historical document, providing insights into Ottoman society through a visual lens.
