Blanche Parker
Blanche Parker was a photographer active in the early twentieth century, documented primarily through a significant body of work dated 1916. While comprehensive biographical data regarding her lifespan and nationality is not currently indexed, her verified output centers exclusively on the medium of photography.
Parker is represented in major institutional collections by 15 individual photographs. These works are cataloged under the collective title The Story of my Life and Friends as Told by Snapshots from Fourteen On. This title suggests an early, autobiographical approach to photography, utilizing the snapshot aesthetic to document personal history and social relationships during the period. The critical significance of her photographic work is attested by its inclusion in the collection of the Museum of Modern Art (MoMA).
The photographs, now highly valued for their historical and artistic merit, are often sought after as museum-quality reproductions. Today, resources sometimes make certain Blanche Parker prints available as downloadable artwork for scholarly study or personal appreciation, particularly if the works have entered the public domain.
