⫸ 923 Postcard CLEAR, Omaha Tribe of Southern Sioux Indians - Photo by Frank A. Rinehart, 1900

Frank Rinehart was commissioned to photograph the Native American personalities who attended Indian Congress held in conjunction with the Trans-Mississippi and International Exposition in 1898. Together with his assistant Adolph Muhr (who would later be employed by the famous photographer Edward S. Curtis), they produced what is now considered "one of the best photographic documentations of Indian leaders at the turn of the century". The Rinehart photographs were a departure from the earlier less sensitive photographs of the Native Americans, by displaying their subjects with strength of expression. Following the Congress, at which time he photographed Clear, Rinehart and Muhr spent the next two years traveling to reservations photographing the Native American leaders who had not attended the event. It was during this time that he took this photograph of Clear.
