Download or read book Native American Portraits written by Nancy Hathaway and published by Chronicle Books. This book was released on 1990-10-01 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Over one hundred photographs from the renowned Kurt Koegler collection of Native American portraits taken between the end of the Civil War and the end of World War I are featured in this powerful compendium depicting a proud and defeated people. Native American Portraits presents a factual, anecdotal, and visual history of the evolving artistry and technology of a century of photographers, as well as of the tribes whose vanishing trappings and traditions they sought to capture with their craft. The photographers -- William Henry Jackson, Camillus Fly, Carleton Watkins, and Lee Moorhouse, among scores of others -- were intrepid adventurers, fiercely committed to their work, who hauled hundreds of pounds of photographic equipment across the mountains and faced many dangers; their subjects -- including such important warriors as Sitting Bull, Chief Joseph of the Nez Perce, Red Cloud, Geronimo, and Chief Gall (who led the Indians to victory against Custer) -- appear venerable, dignified, and beaten. Fascinating and provocative, this richly illustrated and painstakingly annotated volume documents the intersection of photography in its infancy and Native American culture in precipitous decline.

Download or read book American Indian Portraits written by Joseph Kossuth Dixon and published by . This book was released on 1971 with total page 128 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "This group of extraordinary portrait photographs of Indians, taken just before World War I, lay buried in neglected files for more than fifty years -- a forgotten byproduct of the third Rodman Wanamaker expedition to the American Indian. Even the name of the photographer who took the pictures is not known for certain. They are credited to the expedition leader, Dr. Joseph K. Dixon. In any case, they come close, as few other such pictures have done to "capturing the Indians' souls," as Life magazine has said in a recent article. There are 120 portraits altogether, beautifully printed in their original size, of representative Indian men, women and children from tribes across the country in 1913. Individually, each is striking and memorable; collectively they offer a composite portrait of a people dispossessed and resigned, yet of dignity unimpaired."--Book jacket.
