Included in this lot is an alternative view of the original "At the Old Well of Acoma" sepia gelatin framed print by Edward S. Curtis. This is a period 1904 sepia gelatin photographic print from the same photo shoot and subject from Edward Curtis's image "At the Old Well of Acoma". This photo was removed from a photo album of pueblo images belonging to western artist Edgar Martin Keller. Compared to the original image from Edward Curtis, this photo features only one woman who is filling a pottery vessel from a pool of water known as the "Old Well" that was the most interesting and picturesque spots in Acoma. The village of Acoma has the distinction of being the oldest inhabited settlement in the United States. Edward S. Curtis created a monumental collection of Indian pictures and attempted to visit and picture all important tribes of the United States, British Columbia, and Alaska., The basic purpose of this collection of pictures is their use as illustrations for "The North American Indian," a work of twenty volumes and twenty supplementary portfolios of pictures. The photo is in good condition, the frame is fair with a few scratches and marks along it. The frame measures 11 3/4" by 10 1/4", and the photo itself measures 4 1/2" by 6 1/2".
