A simple solution is imagemagick. Like this:
identify -format "%[colorspace]"  filename

another option for tiffs is tiffinfo (part of libtiff)

e.g.
tiffinfo input.tif | grep "Photometric Interpretation:"

returns
"  Photometric Interpretation: RGB color"
for RGB images and
"  Photometric Interpretation: separated"
for CMYK images
