Very Good French Original sepia-toned photograph printed in a period photograph paper. 19x25 cm. Descriptive text in French. Chipped and tear on margins. Iranian was born in 1890 in Constantinople, Istanbul. It is known that he established his studio in 1891 in Pera district of Constantinople - the center of Armenian cultural and political life. In 1895 he enters into partnership with another photographer by the name of Gugasyan. By 1900s the business seems to have wound down as the images marked with his studio signature don't exhibit any over elements of the new century. Of all the major Armenian studios from Istanbul, Iranian's photographs are the rarest, and less than 300 are known to have survived. Iranian's primary subject was the city of Constantinople, its picturesque landscape, architectural heritage, and the many types of artisans and workers that populated its streets. Using the latest photography techniques, which allowed for very rapid exposures, Iranian captured the bustle of the city streets with remarkable clarity. Teeming with life and movement these images have a remarkable immediacy and documentary veracity quite unlike similar views produced by other photographers of the period. The typical approach for many of Iranian's contemporaries such as Sebah & Joalier or Guillame Berggren was to achieve as clear a picture as possible with perfectly balanced compositions and highly visible details - the hallmark of a 'good' commercial photographer. In contrast, Iranian's street views are full of photographic 'ruptures' - blurred figures in movement, surprised glances of people caught unawares - which give his works the viscerality of snapshots. But above all, Iranian was a master at capturing the mood of a place. Catching the Ottoman capital on the brink of rapid transformation, the photographer aimed to record many of its ancient streets and quarters disappear or change the appearance. Thus, like the Parisian street photography of Atget, Iranian's images are 'nostalgic for the present' that is irrevocably slipping into the past. In his studio, the clientele had the choice of a large range of costumes and props through which the modern urbanite could slip into the role of some long-gone ethnic or street type and become a part of history. It is this sense of melancholy that gives Iranian's photographs their subtle emotional power. This is also perhaps the reason why he was ultimately not as successful as a commercial photographer. Modernity had captured the imagination of the people and the wistful romanticism of Iranian's markedly less spectacular images was fast going out of fashion. The small legacy he has left behind is nevertheless of significance in the history of Near-Easter photography. He was one of the rare Ottoman photographers with an individual and subjective approach, which deserves a proper evaluation.
New New English Original bdg. Dust wrapper. Folio. (32 x 24 cm). In Turkish. 232 p., ills. Naks-i Istanbul: Ortaköy Büyük Mecidiye Camii. "He was only 17 when he ascended the throne. However, Sultan Abdülmecid I, who is recalled as the pioneer of modernization trends, father of education reforms, as a matter of fact one of the architects of the Imperial Edict of Reorganization, by his education and rearing, has gone down in history as the individual who has taken the first step to abolish slavery. Istanbul had acquired its most beautiful silhouette by the palaces, manors and mosques that were built during the reign of Sultan Abdülmecid. And among these building, there is one mosque that is the pearl of the Bosphorus, which is ascribed as Naks-i Istanbul (Imprint of Istanbul). The Ortaköy Büyük Mecidiye Mosque, built on an embankment towards the sea, is a waterfront mosque that is as beautiful as a princess, and poses as the most favorite Ottoman heritage of the past and the present. The "Naks-i Istanbul Ortaköy Büyük Mecidiye Camii", where the comprehensive repair and restoration works conducted by Gürsoy Restoration during 2011-2014 are told, has been published by Gürsoy Group Publications under the editorship of Dr. Ahmet Uçar. This work, where the detailed information is provided also on the life, personality and reign of Sultan Abdülmecid I by names who are specialized in their fields, has assumed a very important place in literature.".

Very Good French Paperback. Pages are not opened. Spine chipped. Roy. 8vo. (24 x 17 cm). In French. 80 p. La doctrine de Monroe a la fin du XIXe siecle. The Monroe Doctrine was a United States policy of opposing European colonialism in The Americas beginning in 1823. It stated that further efforts by European nations to take control of any independent state in North or South America would be viewed as "the manifestation of an unfriendly disposition toward the United States". At the same time, the doctrine noted that the U.S. would recognize and not interfere with existing European colonies nor meddle in the internal concerns of European countries. The Doctrine was issued on December 2, 1823 at a time when nearly all Latin American colonies of Spain and Portugal had achieved or were at the point of gaining independence from the Portuguese and Spanish Empires.

From Konstantiniyye to Istanbul - Photographs of the Rumeli Shore of the Bosphorus from the mid- 19th to the 20th century is comprised of works by photography masters who practiced their art in Istanbul from the end of the 19th to the early years of the 20th century. The unique selection from The Suna and Inan Kiraç Foundation Photography Collection reveal the magnificent structures, the daily life and the intriguing personalities of a past Istanbul. Istanbul has evolved into an industrial city and an enormous metropolis: its silhouette, architecture, vehicles, bridges, quays, streets and public spaces have attained an entirely different appearance. Masters such as James Robertson, Félice Beato, Pascal Sébah, Polycarpe Joaillier, Abdullah Brothers, Guillaume Berggren, Bogos Tarkulyan, Mihran Iranian and Gülmez Brothers, not only document the nostalgic images of the city during their time, but also took us along a pleasant journey extending from Karaköy to Rumelifeneri through photographs taken with the difficult and onerous techniques of the time.
