My Latest Venture Into the Vernacular - Lady Loving an Indian Statue

My sister, husband, and I paid a visit to a local antique mall where I bough six photographs and a painted cabinet card frame. I am posting the six photographs and will add the painted cabinet card holder when I have found the card I want to display in it..

 

I try to buy at least two vernacular photographs on each antiquating venture. I hope to improve my patience and skill at recognizing the nuggets of gold in the large boxes of, mostly, dull and repetitive photographs. This young woman with a look of ecstasy on her face hugs the leg of an indian brave on horseback. I hope that it was a joke photograph and she was not really carried away with desire for the statue since I think there is little change of his returning her ardor.
