EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the enigmatic Belle Starr, a renowned female outlaw of the 19th century. Known as the "Bandit Queen of Oklahoma" and often compared to Jesse James, Belle was an infamous figure in the Wild West. The image captures her equestrian prowess as she confidently sits atop a majestic horse, exuding both grace and danger. Belle's criminal lifestyle is shrouded in mystery and intrigue. Married to fellow criminal Jim Reed, she was also the mother of Eddie Starr and Pearl Starr. Her reputation as a thief and femme fatale only added to her notorious status in North America. In this photograph, Belle is seen riding sidesaddle with a gun holster at her side, symbolizing her fearless nature. The old west backdrop further emphasizes the allure of this iconic figure who left an indelible mark on American history. This rare portrait by an American photographer from Peter Newark American Pictures offers us a glimpse into Belle Starr's complex persona. Preserved within a private collection, it serves as a reminder of America's fascination with outlaws and their place in our cultural heritage.
