Armenius Vambery was a Hungarian-born linguist whose Central Asian travels won him immense acclaim in Britain. Following an early study of European and Asian languages, and several years residence in Constantinople, he made his celebrated journey across Central Asia in 1863, disguised as a dervish. Rudolf Abraham graduated in History of Art, and has also studied photography and languages. Over the past six years he has travelled extensively and repeatedly in Eastern Turkey, the Caucasus, Iran, and the Central Asian republics.
