Rare Photos Capture Native Americans In Early 1900s
Early portrait photographs of Native Americans, similar to those presented below, reflect a widespread public interest in Indian life during the 1900s.

These striking images of Native Americans depict the changing ways in which photographers portrayed native subjects during the latter half of the nineteenth century and the beginning of the twentieth. These images are attempts by photographers to document what they saw as the fading of Native American cultures and traditions, to illustrate periods of conflict between the U.S. government and the tribes, and, by the twentieth century, to evoke political sympathy for the cause of the “vanishing race.” Continue reading »
