Pictures of Hawaiian girls. To be exact, these are not only girls but also women, and not all are natives of Hawaii. These photographs come from the 1930s, I came across them on the web.
An elderly Hawaiian woman in traditional clothes, amidst palm trees.
A Hawaiian girl with a small Hawaiian guitar or some other string instrument.
A girl in pseudo-native dress, holding some utensil. You can see that she is simply a model posing for a picture.
Another model in traditional dress, probably dancing.
A girl with a guitar, in native dress.
A girl sitting in front of a traditional Hawaiian hut. The small guitar is here, too.
A girl standing next to the same hut.
And yet another one on the same spot.
Things we get fixated as a society. Cultural icons, in other words.
