EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Brushing Little Squint Eyes San Carlos Apaches" captures a poignant moment in history. Taken in 1898 by Adolph F. Muhr and Frank A. Rinehart, two American photographers renowned for their work with indigenous communities, this platinum print measures 23.5 x 18.4 cm. The image depicts an intimate scene where Brushing Against, a member of the San Carlos Apache tribe, is gently brushing the hair of a young child named Little Squint Eyes. The tenderness and care emanating from Brushing Against's touch is palpable, highlighting the deep bond between them. Through this photograph, Muhr and Rinehart offer us a glimpse into the daily lives of the San Carlos Apaches during that era. It serves as a reminder of their rich cultural heritage and resilience despite facing immense challenges brought upon by colonization. The choice to create this image using platinum printing techniques adds depth and texture to the composition, enhancing its emotional impact on viewers. As we admire this historic piece from the Liszt Collection, let us reflect on the importance of preserving such visual records that celebrate diverse cultures and shed light on forgotten narratives. This photograph stands as both artistry and documentation—a testament to humanity's shared experiences across time and place.
