EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, taken between 1899 and 1928 by Arnold Genthe, captures the timeless beauty and unique architecture of Taos Pueblo in New Mexico, United States. Located in the Sangre de Cristo Mountains, Taos Pueblo is one of the oldest continuously inhabited communities in the country, with a rich history dating back over a thousand years. The image showcases the exterior of Taos Pueblo's adobe and mud brick buildings, which have stood the test of time despite the harsh desert climate. The community's distinctive housing structures, with their flat roofs and narrow windows, are a testament to the ingenuity and resourcefulness of the indigenous people who have called this place home for generations. Genthe's photograph, taken in the 1910s or 1920s, offers a glimpse into the past, transporting us back in time to a simpler way of life. The scene is set against the backdrop of the rugged landscape, with the mountains rising in the distance and the sun casting long shadows over the pueblo. This nitrate negative, now held in the Library of Congress, is a valuable historical document, providing a record of a unique and important part of American heritage. It serves as a reminder of the rich cultural diversity that exists within the United States, and the importance of preserving and celebrating the traditions and histories of indigenous communities like Taos Pueblo.
