About the Artist
John F Collins (1888 - 1990). Photographer
American. Born: Marietta, Ohio, United States, North America
John F. Collins was part of the first generation of 20th century American photographers - along with Edward Steichen, Charles Sheeler, and others - who employed avant-garde ideas into their commercial work and saw no distinction between fine and applied photography, much like the Bauhaus and Constructivist photographers in Europe.
