[NATIVE AMERICANS]. [GERONIMO (1829-1909)]. Boudoir cabinet photograph. Washington, D.C.: A.F. Randall, 16 May 1884. On original studio mount (216 x 133 mm), photographer rubberstamp on verso, also with a contemporary printed copyright pasted on, some light rubbing and soiling at extremities. Alfred Frank Randall (1854-1916) was an accomplished American photographer who accompanied General George Crook during the Apache-Mexico Wars. His subject, Geronimo, is arguably the most famous of all Apache leaders, best-known for his fearlessness for resisting white colonization of the Apache Southwest between 1850 and 1886, a time of intense conflict between the Apache and United States.
