The article analyzes a photo taken by Aby Warburg during his survey of the Pueblo people in 1896, in which a female subject turns to flee the shot, by slinking into her house. The interaction of which this photograph is the trace reveals, in fact, one of the Pathosformeln that Warburg was going to conceptualize later on, while studying in 1905 the representations of the death of Orpheus in the Classical Tradition. He thereby announces, so to speak, the devices of serialization and photographic spatialization, on which Warburg will develop in the coming years a visual anthropology of cultural transmission through images.
