PH Coll 1543.11

Henry Peterson (1843-1911) was born in Lom, Norway. He moved to Chicago when he was 12 and served in the Union Army during the Civil War. In 1876, he and his brother Lewis (1846-1934) arrived in Seattle to operate "The Seattle Photograph Gallery" (also briefly called the "Seattle Art Gallery"). Peterson & Bro. offered photographs of the Puget Sound, as well as being an established portrait business. At some point, the brothers also traveled up to Alaska to photograph the area. Peterson & Bro. remained a modestly successful business until it was wiped out in the great fire of 1889. Following the fire, Henry retired from photography.
