EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Lone Wolf and wife, c. 1890-1910" transports us back in time to the early 20th century. Taken by an American photographer from the Denver Public Library's Western History Collection, this image showcases a Kiowa couple, most likely near Hobart, Oklahoma. The couple stands side by side, their expressions revealing a complex mix of emotions. The husband, known as Lone Wolf, appears stoic and dour in his traditional Native American attire. His wife stands beside him wearing an intricately embroidered shawl draped over her shoulders. Despite their close proximity to each other in the photograph's composition, there is a palpable sense of distance between them. Their love seems restrained or perhaps burdened by circumstances unknown to us. The lone tree trunk behind them adds a touch of melancholy to the scene while also symbolizing strength and endurance. It serves as a reminder that even amidst hardship or unhappiness, love can persist. This portrait captures not only the beauty of these individuals but also provides us with a glimpse into their lives during this era. As we contemplate this poignant image frozen in time, we are left with questions about their story and what may have led them to wear such somber expressions on that day so long ago.
