In 1857 Pascal Sébah opened one of the first photographic studios in Constantinople. Having met with great success in 1873 he expanded the business setting up a further establishment in Cairo near to the renowned Shepheard's Hotel. In 1883 he suffered a stroke and the business was taken over by his son Jean who styled himself J. Pascal Sebah so as not to break the continuity of the business and was to become a talented photographer in his own right. In 1888 he went into partnership with a French photographer resident in Istanbul Policarpe Joaillier the firm in time becoming official photographers of the Sultan. In various forms this business continued down to the middle of the 20th century when in 1952 its last incarnation Foto Sabah finally closed its doors.

Apart from their photographs of important locations in the Middle East the Sébahs were known to stage genre scenes which were used as illustrations in scientific Orientalist publications. The present photographs were likely one of those scenes. They show four Arabic men demonstrating the positions of the raka'ah. The first photographs shows the first and second position standing and bowing or qiyam and ruku. The second photographs shows kneeling and the beginning of prostration or jalsa and sujud.Father and son Sébah rose to prominence because of their well-organized compositions careful lighting and quality of their prints.

1890055023Sebah & Joaillier. ca. 1890 1890. No Binding. Very Good. A small original albumen print photograph by Sebah & Joaillier mounted on paper. Size: 65x8 cm. Rare albumen print photograph mounted on a grey album paper taken by Sebah & Joaillier photograph studio of Constantinople showing Syrian women and men in their traditional clothes. In 1857 photographer Pascal J. Sébah opened a studio in Constantinople today Istanbul Turkey. Photographing city views daily activities and ancient ruins in the surrounding area Sébah sold many of his prints to visiting tourists a prosperous and common market for other contemporary photographers such as the well-known Abdullah Frères. Tourists would select a range of prints from professional photo studies in the countries they visited and compile a travel album of their journey. In 1888 two years after Pascal J. Sébah passed away his 16-year-old son Jean Johannes became involved in the studio work. Jean started a partnership with another photographer from Istanbul the Frenchman Policarpe Joaillier which became a great success. Jean worked both on assignments for the studio and as an individual photographer which can be determined from the signatures on the works: some prints were signed "Sébah & Joaillier" and others have the signature "J.P. Sébah" The studio flourished and Sébah & Joaillier were named as the official photographers of the Ottoman Empire by the Turkish sultan. In the early 1900s Joaillier returned to Paris and Sébah continued his work in Constantinople. After different partnerships the studio was taken over by Ismail Insel and renamed "Foto Sabah" i.e. Photo Morning. <br/> <br/> Sebah & Joaillier., [ca. 1890] unknown
189054541Constantinople: Sebah & Joaillier 1890. First edition. Hardcover. vg- to vg. Oblong small folio. 12 1/4 x 14 1/4". Red pebbled cloth boards with decorative gilt ruling tooling and lettering on the covers. Rebacked maroon leather spine. Gilt-stamped crescent moon and star motif the national emblem of Turkey on the back cover.<br /> <br /> Taken from the Galata Tower in what is now the Karaköy neighborhood of Istanbul this magnificent panorama displays the skyline and cityscape of Constantinople as it appeared sometime in the late 1880s or early 1890s. The panorama is comprised of 10 original albumen photographs mounted on heavy card stock and bound together in accordion style leporello measuring a total of more then 11 feet when completely unfolded. Shot in a southwardly direction the viewer can see Galata Karaköy in the foreground and from left to right across the Bosporus to the Uskudar district on the Asian side and then across the harbor at the mouth of the Golden Horn the Galata Bridge and across to the Pérama neighborhood and the Faith district where many famous landmarks of the city can be seen including the New Mosque Topkapi Palace Hagia Sophia and many others. Each panel measures about 13" wide and 12" tall.<br /> <br /> The photography is credited to "Sebah & Joaillier" one of the most prominent and prolific photography studios of Ottoman Empire during the second half of 19th century. Originally founded sometime around 1857 in Instanbul by Syrian-Armenian photographer Pascal Sebah 1823-1886 the studio was one of the earliest in the city and all of Ottoman Turkey. By the 1870s Sebah had become among the most prominent Ottoman photographers having also opened a branch of the studio in Cairo. Upon Sebah's death in 1888 the firm was taken over by his 16 year-old son Jean Pascal Sebah who then partnered with photographer Policarpe Joaillier 1848-1904. The firm was renamed "Sebah & Joaillier". Therefore although this panorama is undated it could not have been issued earlier than 1888; most likely sometime shortly thereafter circa 1890.<br /> <br /> Spine of of the portfolio has been professionally re-backed. Plates with minor to light foxing although the images are still quite clean and vibrant. Binding in very good images in very good- to very good condition overall. A slightly later version of the panorama from Sebah & Joaillier simply titled "Constantinople" is comprised of 12 slightly smaller panels instead of 10 and measures around the same size in total.<br /> <br /> Bibliographic refences: Jacobson Ken.
