Descripción del artículo del vendedor

Original advertising card for the Santa Fe Railway. Features a reprint on the front of E. I. Couse's painting, The Hopi Weaver. The painting depicts a Hopi man in the process of weaving on a loom. 13 3/4" x 11 3/4." The back of the card includes a map of the Santa Fe Railway lines in the United States and a brief description about the painting. The card is clean and intact overall. Bumping to all of the corners. Lower-right corner has a small chip. Several holes from staples or pins in the margins. Slight edge wear. The center illustration has a wrinkle coming from the top edge. There are two closed tears on either side of the card, mostly limited to the margins and coming in slightly onto the center illustration (millimeters inward onto the illustration). A Very Good copy.

The work of Couse was well-received in his career, especially at a time when it was perceived that the "Old American West" was disappearing. There is a description on the back about the tradition of weaving in the Hopi and Dine (Navajo) cultures. The following is an excerpt from this description: "Although the Navajo and Hopi have lived side by side for centuries, there are today almost as many interesting differences in the product of their looms as in their physical characteristics and modes of life. . Navajo weaving almost invariably is done by the women, while among the Hopis the man is the weaver. Some seventy-five years ago the Navajo weaver commenced to work with an ever growing variety of intricate geometrical designs: the Hopi, however, clings more closely to the simplicity of the ancient patterns." The Santa Fe Railway, or the Atchison, Topeka and Santa Fe Railway (AT&SF), was chartered in 1859. It serviced the cities of Atchison and Topeka in Kansas and Santa Fe, New Mexico. AT&SF eventually merged with the Burlington Northern Railroad to become the Burlington Northern & Santa Fe (BNSF) Railway which operates to this day. …
