‘Avedis’ studio operated at 84 Prince Ibrahim avenue in Alexandria, Egypt between the 1940s and 1950s. The Armenian proprietor of the business specialised in individual and ceremonial portraits, also working as a photographer of public and family events. In all likelihood, the studio was not active for a long period as photographs bearing Avedis’ stamp surface quite rarely. No other information about the photographer has been found.
