United States, New Mexico, Taos Pueblo
1881
Double-sided albumen print on mount
Pueblo of Taos: Image 8 7/8 × 12 1/2" (22.5 × 31.8 cm) | Mount: 10 × 14" (25.4 × 35.6 cm)
Reverse: Arizona Garden, Hotel del Monte, Monterey, Isaiah West Taber, 1885 — Image 7 1/4 × 9 1/4" (18.4 × 23.5 cm)
Provenance: Private collection, Santa Fe, New Mexico
This double-sided albumen mount includes William Henry Jackson's 1881 image titled Pueblo of Taos, showing the adobe architecture of Taos Pueblo with a seated figure in the foreground and the village structures extending across the image. The reverse side contains Isaiah West Taber's 1885 photograph of the Arizona Garden at the Hotel del Monte in Monterey, making the mount an unusual pairing of Southwestern and California views. Jackson was one of the central photographers of the nineteenth-century American West, and his images helped shape public understanding of Southwestern places and Native communities.
The Taos image is treated as the primary subject of the listing, with the Taber photograph noted as part of the object's double-sided presentation. As a Taos Pueblo subject, the work belongs within the Southwest region and is described with clear cultural and geographic specificity. The print is in collector condition with private Santa Fe provenance.
