EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph, titled "Shirt - Kalispel," captures the essence of a Kalispel man from the early 20th century. Taken by renowned American photographer Edward Sheriff Curtis around 1910, the image presents a full-length portrait of the man, who faces the camera with a steady gaze and an air of quiet dignity. He sits with his legs crossed, his hands resting comfortably on his knees, clad in traditional Native American attire. The man's shirt, adorned with intricate beadwork and fringes, is a testament to the rich cultural heritage of the Kalispel people. His earrings, made of bone or shell, add to the overall sense of history and tradition. The photograph, which was likely taken for use as a book illustration, offers a rare glimpse into the lives of Native Americans during a time of significant cultural change. The image, now part of the collections at the Library of Congress, stands as a reminder of the enduring legacy of the indigenous peoples of North America and the importance of preserving their stories and traditions.
