The vanishing race — Navaho. Photographer: Curtis, Edward Sheriff
- Scope & Content:
-
Genre: Portrait Photography
Group of Navaho on horseback, seen from the rear: 'The thought which this picture is meant to convey is that the Indians as a race, already shorn of their tribal strength and stripped of their primitive dress, are passing into the darkness of an unknown future. Feeling that the picture expresses so much of the thought that inspired the entire work, the author has chosen it as the first of the series.'
