Turner, Charles Yardley, artist, born in Baltimore, Maryland, 25 November, 1850. He came to New York in 1872 and studied at the Academy of design for three years. He was one of the founders of the Art students' league, and remained there until 1878, in which year he went abroad. In Paris he studied under Jean Paul Laurens, Michael Munkacsy (forming, with some other students, the "Munkacsy school "), and Leon Bonngt. In 1881 he returned to New York and first exhibited at the National academy the following year. He gained the Hallgarten prize by the "Courtship of Miles Standish" in 1883, was also elected an associate of the academy, and in 1886 was made an academician. His works in oil include "The Grand Canal at Dordrecht," "The Days that are No More," and "Afternoon Tea" (1882) ; " Dorothy Fox" and "Preparing for Yearly Meeting" (1883) ; and "The Last of the Montauks," "Hartnah Thurston," and "The Bridal Procession," from "Miles Standish" (1886). Of his water-colors the principal are " Dordrecht Milkmaid" (1882) ; "Engaged" (1885) : "Martha Hilton" (1886); and "At the Ferry" (1887). Mr. Turner has of late given much attention to etching. Paintings: Reverie, The Bridal Procession.

It's not an unidentified photographer. The credit in the lower left says "Pirie MacDonald, Photographer of Men". Also see this similar photo in the Library of Congress collection.

Thanks for the comment! You're correct, it looks like Pirie MacDonald is the photographer. I'm confirming it with the Archives of American Art and will update it once I hear from them. Cheers, Effie, Smithsonian Institution Archives
