EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures Medicine Crow, a member of the Apsaroke tribe, adorned with a falcon tied to his head. The falcon serves as a powerful symbol of his guardian spirit, carried with him wherever he goes. The photo is taken from volume 4 of an encyclopedia published by Edward S. Curtis between 1907 and 1930. Edward S. Curtis was renowned for his extensive documentation of Native American tribes across North America during the early to mid-20th century. His work aimed to preserve their culture and traditions in the face of rapid modernization and assimilation. In this image, Medicine Crow's piercing gaze meets the viewer's eyes, revealing both strength and vulnerability. The intricate details captured by Curtis showcase not only the beauty of traditional native attire but also highlight the significance placed on spiritual connections within indigenous communities. The necklace worn by Medicine Crow adds another layer to this portrait, suggesting that it holds great importance within his culture - perhaps representing status or personal achievements. Overall, this photograph offers a glimpse into Native American life at the turn of the 20th century while emphasizing their deep connection to nature and spirituality. It stands as a testament to Edward S. Curtis' dedication in preserving these invaluable cultural treasures for future generations to appreciate and learn from.
