Rare photograph, taken between 1904-1906 by Joseph Jacinto Mora (American, 1876-1947), one of the last known images taken from Mora's original negative. Inventory sticker on verso. After 1912, cameras were banned from the reservation. Depicts black and white male ogre with bows, taken during Powamu Festival. Sepia, unmatted. Measures about 11" x 14" overall. The images in this collection were part of a Smithsonian traveling exhibition (SITES) of Jo Moraa??s work, which ran from 1979-1981, after which the negatives were donated to a university museum. Honoring a request by the Hopi Tribe, the museum agreed that unless permission were granted by the Hopi, no new photos will ever be made from the negatives depicting these sacred ceremonies. Provenance: Obtained from Mora family in the 1970s by John R. Wilson, along with original negatives and other Mora art works. Wilson exhibited the photos in 1976 at the Alexandre Hogue Gallery, University of Tulsa, then lent them to the Smithsonian to be part of their SITES exhibition in 1979. He subsequently donated the negatives to Northern Arizona University's Cline Library. Wilson sold the photographs to the consignor. Sources: Jo Mora Trust.
