4. Shoshone woman, Baker and Johnson, ca. 1880
(Wind River Archives, Central Wyoming College)
Baker
and Johnsons handsome studio portrait of a Shoshone women
and her daughter in traditional dress is also typical of the kind
of photography done by professionals who had a specific market to
cater to and a specific story to tell. Often such stories only briefly
touched on what the Shoshone people were really experiencing at
that time.
