The David Davidson Story

by Mike Pellegrino

Follow me down a country road to the past, captured by the camera of one of the great photographers of the early 20th century.

The Flower Shows of the 30’s, Peacocks to Elephants, The Native Americans of Montana, Battle Flags of the Revolution, these are just a few of the talking points we will discuss on our travels created by the David Davidson Studios of Providence R.I.

  • Welcome to The David Davidson Story

    This story is about a very ambitious young man who started a small, family-based business in Providence Rhode Island at the turn of the 1900’s. He grew this business into one of the leaders in the field of hand colored photography. And to a larger degree, helped that art form become a contributing part of the Arts and Crafts movement that influenced our country in many ways.

    I have been fortunate enough to have started collecting David Davidson’s work 40-45 years ago. And as they say in “the business”, I was in the right place at the right time.

    I hope to be able to share my collection and the knowledge I’ve acquired, touch base with old friends and meet new ones. Along the way, I’m sure I will learn a few things myself and possibly help create a few new Davidson collectors.

    Thank you, Mike Pellegrino
