Erzherzöge von Österreich-Toskana

Adele Perlmutter was born in Prague, Czech Republic in 1835. She moved to Vienna in the 1850s and began working as a photographer in the early 1860s. In 1862 she opened Atelier Adele, which quickly became a favourite haunt of Vienna's elite. Atelier Adele's portraits were renowned for their artistic quality and attention to detail. The studio employed a team of skilled photographers and retouchers who worked together to produce stunning images. Atelier Adele's photographs were often used for official purposes such as passports and identity cards. In addition to portrait photography, Atelier Adele also produced photographs of Vienna's landmarks and architecture. These images were sold as postcards and souvenirs to tourists visiting the city. Adele Perlmutter ran Atelier Adele until her death in 1905. The studio was then taken over by her son, who ran it until the 1920s. Today, the photographs of Atelier Adele are highly sought after by collectors and are considered important examples of 19th century photography.
