Navajo sheep and weaver[edit]

Navajo sheep & weaver

Just a historical photograph. Wikipedia always needs more pictures of non-Euro-American cultures.

William Pennington took this photograph sometime between 1904 and 1932. Digitally provided by the Denver Public Library.

  • Oppose. Fair-use images aren't elligible for Featured Pictures, although I'm not so sure that the license is correct. It could be old enough for {{PD-art-US}} or similar, though this isn't clear. However, although it is historically interesting, I don't find it a very captivating image, and it seems to have been removed from the Navajo Nation article. The Image:Navajo medicine man.jpg there is rather good, but I recall seeing some other marvelous Edward Curtis photographs of tribal chiefs. It is surprising they are not already on the Curtis article, but they could be other articles in Wikipedia already (and yes we have recently had Curtis' Image:Zuni-girl-with-jar2.png). -- Solipsist 07:24, 27 Mar 2005 (UTC)
