Its images and links won't load until it's back. Panarchive shows each image straight from the archive's own website, so when that site is down the picture can't be shown here. Nothing is lost: everything returns once the archive is back up, and we check every few minutes.

Scope & content
Photograph is a portrait of a young inuit boy, fully frontal. He looks directly at the viewer, with a slightly bored expression. His jacket is well worn animal skin, the hood appears to be fur lined. His hair is cut in the standard fashion (bowl cut), and he is beardless. All background has been blocked out on the glass plate negative by emulsion to give the illusion of a completely white background.
