Nelson, Amy, A Stylistic Analysis of American Indian Portrait Photography in
Oklahoma, 1869-1904. Master of Arts (Art History), May 2001, 100 pp., 16 illustrations,
references, 77 titles.
This thesis studies the style of Native American portrait photographs of William
S. Soule (1836-1908), John K. Hillers (1834-1925), and William E. Irwin (1871-1935),
who worked in Oklahoma from 1869 to 1904. The examination of the three men's work
revealed that each artist had different motivations for creating Native American portrait
photographs, and a result, used a distinct style. However, despite the individual artistic
styles, each artist conformed to Native American stereotypes common during the
nineteenth-century. The thesis includes a discussion of the history of the area,
photographer biographies, a stylistic analysis of the photographs, and how the images fit
into American Indian stereotypes.
