Lora Webb: Life on the Wyoming frontier in the early 20th century

A remarkable 24,000 image archive by the photographer, businesswoman and homemaker Lora Webb Nichols, providing an intimate window into life on the Wyoming frontier in the early 20th century. This website features a curated selection work from the LWN archive.

What Nichols left behind might be the largest photographic record of this era and region in existence: thousands of portraits, still lives, domestic interiors and landscapes, all made with an unfussy, straightforward, often humorous eye toward the small textures and gestures of every day life - Sarah Blackwood, The New Yorker
