EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative full-length portrait captures the essence of a Nez Perce man from the late 19th century, as photographed by renowned ethnographer Edward Sheriff Curtis. Dressed in traditional clothing, the man gazes directly at the camera with a steady and proud expression. He wears a colorful blanket draped over his shoulders, adorned with intricate designs and fringes. The man's neck is adorned with a beautiful necklace made of beads and feathers, adding to his regal appearance. The image was taken around 1899, a time when the Nez Perce people were facing significant cultural changes due to the encroachment of European settlers and the US government. This portrait serves as a poignant reminder of the rich heritage and resilience of the Native American people, and the importance of preserving their history and traditions. The photograph is part of the extensive collection of the Library of Congress, a testament to the enduring legacy of Edward Sheriff Curtis as a documenter of Native American cultures. The sepia tone adds to the timeless quality of the image, transporting us back to a bygone era.
