AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Circa 1880, 21x27 cm.
"Sudanese musicians of Egypt", a very fine vintage silver print, large format, in very good condition with excellent preservation of contrasts, gray tones and levels of detail from TTB to Superb, attributed to JP. Sebah.
The value of this print lies in it not being mounted on an album page or cardboard backing, which is rare.
Labeled and signed at the bottom of the print, in the negative.
Rare subject.
Deserves framing (slight edge folds as is often the case).
Will be shipped with its neutral pH sleeve (ideal for a collection in good condition).

Jean‑Paul Sebah (1872–1947) was a photographer active in Istanbul, heir to an important dynasty of photographers established in the Ottoman Empire. He was the son of the famous photographer Pascal Sébah, who founded in the 1850s one of the most renowned photographic studios in Constantinople.
