Description
English:

Anders Beer Wilse (1865-1949) emigrated from Norway in 1884, arriving in Seattle in 1890 to work for the United States Geological Survey. Photography was an important part of his job, and in 1897 he decided to become a full time outdoor photographer. Until his return to Norway in 1900, Wilse took many photographs in and around Seattle, documenting the bustle of the growing city, as well as the inhabitants and scenery of the region. In this image taken by Wilse, an elderly Native American man stands next to a seated elderly Native American woman. They pose outside of a wooden shack, both are wearing Western-style dress.

Handwritten on image: Indians over 100 years old. Handwritten on Globe Art Company label previously attached to back of frame: 5/15/1900, Mrs. Schmitt, 409 Broadway.
