EDITORS COMMENTS
This striking photograph, titled "Chief Yukeoma, center, 1911," captures the powerful presence of an unidentified Native American chief. The image, created by renowned photography studio Harris & Ewing, showcases the chief in full length, dressed in a three-piece suit and boots, with a traditional moccasin visible at his feet. The contrast between his traditional footwear and the Western-style clothing adds a layer of complexity to his identity, reflecting the intersection of indigenous and colonial cultures during this period. The photograph was taken during the early 1910s in the United States, a time of significant change for Native American communities as they navigated the complexities of assimilation and the preservation of their cultural heritage. The chief's stoic gaze and confident posture convey a sense of resilience and determination, making this image a poignant reminder of the rich history and complexities of Native American experiences. The photograph is part of the Harris & Ewing Collection at the Library of Congress, which includes over 150,000 glass negatives and 35mm color transparencies taken between 1912 and 1955. The collection is an invaluable resource for scholars, historians, and anyone interested in American history and culture during the first half of the 20th century.
