Classic Hopi and Zuni Kachina Figures

Photographs by Andrea Portago Text by Barton Wright

Presented here are one hundred classic-era (1880s-1940s) Hopi and Zuni carved dolls from provate and public collections that have rarely, if ever, been put on exhibition and that collectively form a profound and powerful assembly of the very finest examples from the classic period in Kachina carving. Andrea Portago has gracefully photographed these rare figures using available light so as not to distort their colors and to reveal their moevement and drama, passion and personality.
