I found this portrait in the Digital Public Library of America while looking for something else. It was titled MIRIANA, TUTSI SPINSTER, CIRCA 1956. It is a photograph of a Tutsi woman named Miriana who lived in Mutumba, Karuzi Province, Burundi in July 1956. (From the Ethel Mary Albert Papers, National Anthropological Archives, Smithsonian Institution.) Dr. Ethel Mary Albert, the anthropologist who took this photo, seems to have been a spinster herself.
