Waterfall Landscape in Light Green

Waterfall Landscape in Light Green

Although unsigned, this pleasing waterfall landscape gum print came from an archive of photographs held by one of the two sons of American amateur photographer Charles Rollins Tucker, 1868-1956, and is being tentatively attributed to the artist by this archive. The photograph, in a light shade of green, has been printed on a paper stock with raised screen pattern.

Note: the reference to the crossed-out lines: Birthday 1919 and 5 years old may be in reference to the artist’s son John Robert Tucker, who was born in 1914. (-1991), a strong clue this may be a re-used mount by C.R. Tucker.
