This exceptionally comprehensive album features portraits of nearly all the peoples and cultures within the Ottoman Empire around 1860-70, as well as neighboring regions under its influence. It vividly illustrates the remarkable diversity of the empire’s political, economic, and cultural life, including portraits of high-ranking officials, officers, and armed personnel in their various uniforms and attire. The collection also includes images of embassy staff, eunuchs, and dwarfs from the Sultan’s court, as well as priests and bishops representing the spectrum of Oriental Christian religions. Additional groups, such as dervishes, mullahs, sheikhs, street vendors, veiled women, farmers, Jews, musicians, pilgrims and beggars, further enrich this extraordinary album. – Some faded in edges, some light scuff marks, otherwise most in very good condition.
