Most of their photography was taken in the Ottoman Empire.Vicen (later known as Abdullah Sukru after converting to Islam) began his photographic career by touching up photos for Rabach, who opened his photography studio in 1856 in the Bayezid district of Constantinople. In 1858, when Vicen's younger brother Kevork returned from his studies at the Moorat-Raphael Armenian College in Venice, they and another brother, Hovsep, decided to take over Rabach's photography studio and open their own, called the Abdullah Frères.[1] In 1867, they sold their shop in Beyazid and moved to a more favorable location in Pear.[2] The Abdullah Frères subsequently were among the most famous photographers in the Ottoman Empire.[2] In 1863, Sultan Abdulaziz declared the Abdullah Frères as the official court photographers and Outstanding Artists of the City, an epithet they used until the closure of the shop in 1899.[1][2] In 1886, at the request of the Khedive in Egypt, they opened a branch in Cairo, Egypt.[1]Over their long career, the Abdullah Frères photographed numerous Ottoman sultans, Ottoman statesmen such as Ibrahim Edhem Pasha and Osman Nouri Pasha, international figures such as Mark Twain, scenic views, and more.Several collections of Abdullah Frères photographs exist around the globe.
