Best Antique Batwing Frame David Davidson White Mountains NH Landscape Photo

Description: Best Antique Batwing Frame David Davidson White Mountains NH Landscape Photo. I am not sure which I like better - the photo or the frame. Original frame measures 14 5/8" x 18 5/8" that fits 12" x 16". This is a genuine hand tinted photo, not a process print. Back side has the original label with image catalog number that looks like 1613, I could not identify the exact location but I would say very likely White Mountains NH area or possibly Plymouth VT. Fine condition, original frame is quite solid & sturdy, old glass panel is fine - see my pics. The frame is actually one of the nicest of this type we have ever seen. David Davidson (1881 - 1967) was active/lived in Rhode Island. David Davidson is known for Color photography.Davidson was considered to be one of the top two national leaders in hand-colored photography, second only to Wallace Nutting, in the early 20th century. Davidson met Nutting at Brown University and learned this fine art from him.Davidson spent many afternoons with Nutting in the countryside and took most of his photographs around Rhode Island. He founded the Davidson Photographic Studios in Providence, R.I. and sold much of his work through department stores, gift shops and traveling salesmen. His photos were so popular that hardly a New England wedding occurred where the bride did not receive at least one Davidson picture as a wedding or shower gift. Interest in hand-colored photography ended in the early 1940’s.Among the more than 1000 different shots Davidson took over a 40-year period were his interior and exterior shots from his collection of America’s Colonial Revival Movement, which included Hearthside. Typically Davidson’s interior scenes did not include people.
