Portrait of Richard Tepe

Richard Tepe

Richard Tepe was a photographer documented as active around 1900. His existing body of work demonstrates a consistent focus on nature, landscape, and detailed botanical studies.

Fifteen of Richard Tepe's photographs are represented in major international museum collections, establishing the historical and artistic value of his output. These works include various landscape compositions, such as Besneeuwde Jachtduinen bij Bloemdaal and Beukenlaan in Voorst, alongside close observational studies of flora, including Amandelbloesem, Bloeiende dahlia tegen egale achtergrond, and Bloeiende vlierbes.

The institutional holdings of his photography are significant, with Richard Tepe’s works preserved in the collections of both the Cleveland Museum of Art and the Rijksmuseum. The technical quality and preservation of these 1900-era images allow for the generation of museum-quality prints today. Since much of this material is now in the public domain, high-quality prints of Richard Tepe's work are widely accessible for scholarship and viewing.
