Est: $500 - $1,000
Mario Scacheri (1898-1940) Julian Martinez, Famous Potter of Pueblo of San Idelfonso, N.M. Circa 1935. This circa 1935 photograph bears the photographer's original period ink stamp verso, and pictures Julian Martinez 'painting' a piece of pottery before firing. The image title is inscribed in pencil back side of the mount. This image was published in Indians Today by Mario and Mabel Scacheri, 1936. In that book, the facing page described the image of Julian, '' .Aunt Marie's husband was sitting in another room, painting, beautiful Indian designs in clay paint on the pots, which aunt Marie had made. He used as a brush, a long splinter from the yucca plant, a kind of cactus which grows in New Mexico and Arizona.'' Mario Scacheri was an Italian-born photographer, author and columnist who emigrated to America in the 1920s. In 1933, he moved from Seattle to Chicago and became staff photographer for the weekly newspaper of the 1933 World's Fair. While living in Chicago, he met his wife Mabel Delameter, a reporter for the Chicago Evening American, By 1936, the two were living in Manhattan and Mario working as photographer and camera editor for the New York World Telegram, where he also edited one of the first ever weekly newspaper columns to educate the public on the art and hobby of photography. This same year the Scacheri's published Indians Today, which was filled with with their photographs documenting the daily lives and customs of Pueblo Indians in the American West. They would go on to write and illustrate several other books on photography and Native Americans, filling them with their photography.

Est: -
Julian (Pocano) Martinez (1885 - 1943) Koshare Clowns Gouache on Paper. Koshare (co-shar-eh) are the sacred clowns of Pueblo religion.
