United States, New Mexico
Circa 1900
Hand-colored photograph
10 × 14½ in. (25.4 × 36.8 cm) including frame
Provenance: Larry Frank, Taos, NM
This hand-colored photograph documents a Santa Fe street scene around 1900, showing the O.K. Barber Shop storefront with burros loaded with supplies in the foreground, a subject that captures the intersection of Southwestern commercial life and working animal transport at the turn of the century. Hand-coloring was applied to period photographs to approximate the appearance of color and increase their appeal for display and sale, and this example retains its color application in the framed format in which it was originally presented. The Larry Frank provenance from Taos connects the piece to a well-known collection of Southwestern material.
