A Hopi Girl

Vintage large format Portfolio Photogravure, Portfolio 12, Plate #406, The North American Indian, on Japan Tissue, circa 1905.

Described by Edward S. Curtis: "Soft, regular features are characteristic of Hopi young women, and no small part of a mother's time is used to be devoted to dressing the hair of her unmarried daughters. The aboriginal style is rapidly being abandoned, and the native one-piece dress here illustrated is seldom seen even at the less advanced of the Hopi pueblos."
