EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, titled "The Wife of Plenty Coups," was taken by renowned American ethnographer and photographer Edward Sheriff Curtis in 1908. The image captures the traditional beauty and dignity of Plenty Coups's wife, who is standing against a rocky backdrop. The Apsáalooke, also known as the Crow people, are an indigenous tribe from the Plains region of North America, specifically Montana, United States of America. The woman is wearing traditional Crow apparel, which includes a colorful dress adorned with intricate beadwork and fringes. This photograph is an important representation of the Crow people's heritage and cultural traditions, which were documented extensively by Curtis during his anthropological studies in the early 20th century. The gelatin silver print, held in the Library of Congress, is a testament to the rich history and diversity of indigenous peoples in North America and serves as a reminder of the importance of preserving cultural heritage for future generations.
