Reproduction of a photograph of Aleppo by Vartan Derounian (1888–1954), an Armenian photographer active across Syria and the wider Middle East. A leading figure of interwar Near Eastern photography, he worked in Aleppo, Cairo, and Khartoum, and is especially known for documenting Armenian refugees in 1920s–1930s Aleppo—capturing daily life from hardship to resettlement. His broader work includes images of archaeological sites, landscapes, and urban life, forming a lasting, human-centered record of displaced Armenian communities.Provenance
