19301 album pleine toile verte, format 21,5 x 18 cm, avec 22 photos format 17 x 11 cm, circa 1918-1937, Vartan Derounian Bel album en parfait état, réunissant 22 photographies par Vartan Dérounian, l'un des plus grands photographes arméniens du Proche-Orient de l'Entre-Deux-Guerres. Né à Arapkir en Turquie en 1888, décédé en 1954 à Beyrouth (Liban), Vartan Arounian y débute sa carrière de photographe chez les frères Sarafian en 1911. Il part à Karthoum où il forme son frère Agop. Etabli au Caire pendant la Première Guerre Mondiale, il travaille auprès du suisse Heinzelmann, photographe de la cour égyptienne du sultan d'Egypte et futur roi Fouad Ier. Sitôt la guerre terminée, Vartan et son frère Philippe reparte à Alep, où il épouse la fille du photographe Krikor Missirlian.

Etat satisfaisant (fortes rouss. sur couv. lég. frottée, bon état intérieur). Français

(errata), 458 pp. et 2 ff. n. ch.

Volney's popular and highly-regarded work was the result of three year's travels, a good deal of which time was spent in Cairo. His account has never really been surpassed.
