Description from the seller

Work made in 1028 by Kazanjian. Here I include biography and data to consider.
The family is an Asturian family that made their mark in the Indies in the late 19th and early 20th centuries.

Aram Kazanjian was born in the early 1880s and emigrated to the United States at the age of 16. While studying in Paris, he learned that his parents had been murdered during the Hamidian massacres, which compelled his decision to move permanently to the USA. After settling in Boston, Kazanjian turned to commercial photography, and within a few years, he managed to open his first studio called 'Aram,' located at 160 Tremont St. There is little doubt that he would have made the acquaintance of the famous Boston-based compatriot, photographer John Garo, with whom Kazanjian possibly apprenticed at the beginning of his career. In 1905, he participated in a local photo competition and won first prize. Moving to New York with his wife and children in 1914, Kazanjian’s self-titled studio soon became one of the more prestigious photo pavilions in Manhattan. It was located on Fifth Avenue—a busy and important thoroughfare where many of the city's key social and cultural institutions were situated. Kazanjian’s clientele included New York’s business elites, as well as actors, politicians, and artists. The world-famous photographer Dorothy Lange, among other notable photographers whose names have not reached us, worked as an assistant in his studio in the 1920s. Kazanjian's daughter, Arlene Francis, also managed to establish a reputation as a respected radio and television actress. In the 1930s, the studio changed its name to Kaiden-Kazanjian. It is likely that Kaiden was either Kazandjian’s son or another related business partner, but the consistent stylistic approach of the studio’s output suggests that Aram remained the chief artistic voice of the establishment at least until the late 1940s.
