Genre: Portrait Photography
View of a Pima woman carrying a basket on her back, seen from the rear in a desert landscape in Arizona: 'This illustration shows the typical burden basket of the several Piman tribes of southern Arizona, called kího in the Piman language. Their mythology relates that once the kího was an animate being, but owing to disobedience of divine laws when the people emerged from the under-world, it became inanimate, and has since been carried on the backs of the women.'
