EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, taken between 1899 and 1928 by Arnold Genthe, captures the breathtaking views of the Acoma, New Mexico area during the early 20th century. The image showcases the unique terrain of Cibola County, with its rolling hills and adobe houses nestled among them. Acoma Pueblo, also known as Sky City, is prominently featured in the photograph, its mud brick buildings standing proudly on the hillside. Arnold Genthe, a renowned American photographer, expertly captured the essence of this historic community, showcasing the traditional architecture and the connection between the people and their land. The intricate fences and brick buildings, constructed from local materials, add to the charm of this timeless scene. The photograph, which is part of the Library of Congress collection, offers a glimpse into the past, transporting us back to a simpler time. The image is particularly significant for its depiction of the indigenous community, providing a window into the lives of the Pueblo people during the 1910s and 1920s. The use of nitrate negatives adds to the photograph's historical value, as this photographic process was popular during the early 20th century. This image is a testament to the rich cultural heritage of New Mexico and the United States, and serves as a reminder of the importance of preserving our history for future generations.
