Fred Bohle Photographs in Special Collections (posted June 25, 2008)
Robert Wieking recently donated a remarkable photograph album dated c. 1900 which contains 273 black-and-white photographs taken by Fred Bohle in Mexico, the Southwest, and the Pacific Northwest. Many of the photographs depict Navajo, Hopi, Zuni, and Puebloan families and communities. The album also includes photographs of Indigenous Peoples of the Plains. The images from Mexico capture scenes of bull fights, Mexico City, daily life, and trolleys (introduced in Mexico City in January of 1900). Fred Bohle possessed a great interest in and respect for Native Peoples of North America and became a long-term collector of Native American baskets and other art objects. He and his wife Louise were members of the German immigrant community of Oakland, California. Fred spent most of his working life as an engraver for Oakland area newspapers. He bequeathed this album to his good friends, the Wieking (Wilhelm and Christine) Family in Oakland. The Library appreciates the assistance of Stewart Koyiyumptewa, archivist for the Hopi Tribe, who helped identify people and places.
You can search the Colorado Plateau Digital Archives for Fred Bohle images or any of the topics mentioned above.
