CARVALHO'S JOURNEY
Its a real life adventure story of the American West with a most unlikely character taking center stage. In 1853 Solomon Carvalho, an observant Sephardic Jew who had never saddled his own horse, accompanied the famed explorer John Fremont on Fremonts Fifth Westward Expedition and became one of the first photographers to document the far West.
Solomon Carvalho captured the sweeping vistas of the West through a series of daguerreotypes recreated for the film by Santa Fe resident Robert Shlaer who retraced parts of Carvalhos challenging journey. Mr. Shlaer will be at the screening to share his experience and insights about this piece of history.
