1911 Bureau Census Dwelling Family Native American Pipe Recording Tent Winnebago Wisconsin Writing
EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print titled "CENSUS TAKING: WISCONSIN" we are transported back in time to witness a crucial moment of documentation and cultural preservation. The image captures a U. S. Census taker diligently recording information about a Winnebago Native American family in Wisconsin, circa 1911. The scene unfolds outside their dwelling, which appears to be a traditional tent made from natural materials. The family members, dressed in their distinctive clothing, sit patiently as the census taker meticulously writes down details that will become part of an invaluable historical record. A man from the Winnebago tribe is seated with his young daughter beside him. Their expressions convey both curiosity and trust towards the census taker's task. Meanwhile, another man can be seen smoking a pipe nearby, adding an air of tranquility to the scene. This photograph not only showcases early census-taking practices but also provides us with glimpses into the lives and traditions of Native American communities during this period. It serves as a reminder of our collective responsibility to preserve and honor diverse cultures for future generations. Granger Art on Demand has skillfully captured this poignant moment in history through their expertly reproduced print. As we gaze upon it today, let us appreciate its significance as more than just an image but rather as a testament to the importance of understanding and respecting different cultures within our society.
