Description:Full length shot of a man in a greatcoat and a fur cap. Verso: hand-written inscriptions in Bulgarian: "year 1877 / The numeral 1877 and the world 'year' are written by my mother / Kosta".
Comment:Stefan Stambolov (1854 - 1895) was a Bulgarian politician, a deputy at the Bulgarian Founding Assembly of 1879, Vice Chairman and later Chairman of the Bulgarian Parliament. In 1886 Stambolov became Regent until the proclamation of Ferdinand of Saxe-Coburg-Gotha as Knyaz of the autonomous Principality of Bulgaria in 1887. He was also Prime Minister for seven years (1887 - 1894). Stambolov was assassinated in July 1895. VASE.00254 and VASE.00255 are identical; probably taken by Anastas Karastoyanov in Belgrade in 1877 and later mounted on cardboards by Anastas's sons Ivan and Dimitar Karastoyanov.
