Louis E. Jones was a well-regarded photographer and painter closely associated with the Catskill Mountains and, later in his career, with the Great Smoky Mountains near Gatlinburg, Tennessee.

I have recently acquired a number of new Catskills photographs by Louis E. Jones. They have all been added to the Jones gallery, which now contains 24 of his original postcard photographs.
