EDITORS COMMENTS
ALASKA: VILLAGE, 1887. A glimpse into the past reveals a picturesque village nestled on Killisnoo Island's rugged coast in Alaska. This photo print, captured by William H. Partridge in 1887, transports us to a time when Tlingit culture thrived amidst breathtaking natural beauty. In the foreground of this remarkable image, we witness Tlingit dugout canoes gracefully resting upon the shore, their sleek forms blending harmoniously with the tranquil Pacific Ocean backdrop. The village itself exudes an air of serenity and simplicity; log houses stand proudly against a backdrop of towering evergreen trees and majestic firs. The late afternoon sun casts a warm glow over the scene, illuminating every detail - from the intricately carved totems that dot the landscape to the sturdy fences surrounding each dwelling. It is as if time stands still within this idyllic cove. This photograph not only captures a moment frozen in history but also serves as a testament to resilience and cultural heritage. The indigenous people who called this village home have left an indelible mark on Alaska's rich tapestry. As we gaze upon this extraordinary print from The Granger Collection, let us reflect on our shared human history and appreciate both the timeless beauty of nature and the vibrant cultures that have shaped our world.
