WikiProject class rating[edit]

  • The entire section entitled "Gertrude Käsebier and the Sioux" is made up of text copied directly from Wikipedia articles on Chief Iron Tail and Chief Flying Hawk. Generally Wikipedia frowns on unnecessary duplication of entries. The section on Chief Flying Hawk is almost entirely about the man and not about the photograph; as such it is out of place in this article. I suggest that this section should either be extensively rewritten or deleted altogether after adding links to the main articles. Lexaxis7 (talk) 17:25, 2 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]

I eliminated subtitles in the section on the Sioux. I agree with you, they gave an impression that the section was written about the men and not Käsebier's photographs.Richlevine00 (talk) 16:03, 10 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Gertrude Käsebier

Gertrude Käsebier (May 18, 1852 – October 12, 1934) was an American photographer who was known for her images of motherhood and her portraits of Native Americans; her portraits of the Sioux focused more on the expression and individuality of the person than their costumes and customs. She helped establish the Women's Professional Photographers Association of America and promoted photography as a career for women. This photograph was taken in around 1900, when she was at the height of her career.
