Photography
Abdollah Mirza Qajar (Persian: عبدالله میرزا قاجار; 1850 – 1912) was an Iranian photographer from the Qajar dynasty. He was the son of Jahangir Mirza Qajar. He was closely associated with the Dar al-Fonun college, where he graduated, and was appointed as its teacher of photography in 1883. From then until 1896, Naser al-Din Shah and his close companion, Mirza Ali Asghar Khan Amin al-Soltan, often assigned Abdollah Mirza on journeys devoted to photography. Abdollah Mirza Qajar died in 1912 in Tehran.
