Maggiori informazioni sul libro

The Louisiana Purchase Exposition of 1904 saw as one of its highlights the "anthropology reservation," an exhibit of "savage" and "primitive" people. Charles Carpenter, chief photographer for the Field Museum, traveled to St. Louis to attend the Exposition and take pictures of the people in this exhibit. Portraits of Native Americans presents these photographs for the first time, in an effort to preserve the visually rich moments captured in the incongruous setting of the Louisiana Purchase Exposition. An introduction by Brenda Child provides valuable historical context and background.
