DELAWARE WOMEN, c1915 - A Glimpse into the Rich Traditions of Western Delaware Native Americans
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This print from Granger Art on Demand takes us back to the early 20th century, offering a rare glimpse into the lives of Jennie Bobb and her daughter Nellie Longhat. Both adorned in traditional Delaware dress, they proudly showcase their cultural heritage through intricate beadwork, embroidery, and fabric patterns. Jennie Bobb, a Western (Absentee) Delaware Native American woman, exudes grace as she sits alongside her adolescent daughter. Her striking hairstyle and ornate necklace reflect her tribal roots while embodying strength and resilience. Nellie Longhat stands by her mother's side with an air of youthful innocence yet carries herself with dignity that belies her age. Photographed in Oklahoma around 1915, this portrait captures not only the beauty but also the deep connection between mother and daughter within their Lenape community. Their moccasins symbolize their ties to North America's indigenous cultures while representing their presence in both Midwest and Southwestern regions. The Carousel Collection has preserved this precious moment in history for us to appreciate today. As we admire these two remarkable women through time's lens, let us celebrate their contribution to tribal art and honor the rich traditions that continue to shape our diverse American tapestry.
