Portfolio II, Plates 40-75 is a 1905 by Edward S. Curtis, held at Cleveland Museum of Art.
This photo shows a desert scene with tall saguaro cacti towering over brush. In the foreground, a person sits under one cactus, wearing a wide-brimmed hat and a long skirt. Nearby, a woven basket and a small pot rest on the ground, while the background fades into a soft, hazy landscape. The title says this is a "saguaro harvest," hinting at the cactus’s importance to the people who live there. The photo looks old and sepia-toned, like it was made a long time ago.
