Description
A framed, professionally shot image of a small stand of mature trees and a grassy area that leads down to a large body of water (possibly Hamilton Lake). "Autumn, H.E.Gaze, F.R.P.S" is written in pencil directly under the image (i.e. on the matting). Henry Gaze (1874-1953) was a photographer of international standing who produced an extraordinary body of work from the 1920s to the 1940s. Gaze worked as a commercial photographer in Hamilton for forty years. Gaze was influenced by the Pictorialist movement in photography, and became one of its finest provincial exponents.
