EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, titled 'Acoma, New Mexico area views' by Arnold Genthe, captures the essence of the Acoma Pueblo community in the early 20th century. Located in Cibola County, New Mexico, USA, Acoma Pueblo is one of the oldest continuously inhabited communities in the United States, with a rich history dating back over 800 years. Genthe's image showcases the unique adobe architecture of the Pueblo, with its mud brick buildings and whitewashed exteriors, nestled against the rugged desert landscape. Horses and animals roam freely in the background, adding to the sense of rural tranquility. The image also reveals a glimpse into the daily life of the community, with people going about their business in the foreground. The photograph was taken between 1899 and 1928, during a time when the area was undergoing significant change. The image serves as a reminder of the enduring heritage and traditions of the Acoma people, and the importance of preserving their history and culture. This nitrate negative photograph is part of the extensive collection of the Library of Congress, and is a testament to the power of photography to capture a moment in time and transport us to another place and era. The image invites us to reflect on the past, and to appreciate the beauty and diversity of American history and culture.
