EDITORS COMMENTS
This head-and-shoulders portrait, titled "Wolf" and created by Edward Sheriff Curtis in 1908, showcases a Crow man from the Absaroka tribe of Montana, United States. The photograph, held in the Library of Congress, offers a glimpse into the rich cultural heritage of the American West during the early 20th century. The man is dressed in traditional Crow apparel, with a long, fringed dress adorned with intricate beadwork and a braided belt. His hair is styled in multiple braids, each one held in place by an earring. The man's pierced ears are adorned with simple, yet elegant, earrings. His serious expression and direct gaze add to the powerful presence conveyed in the image. The photograph is an important contribution to the ethnographic and anthropological record of Native American cultures, providing valuable insight into the clothing, jewelry, and customs of the Crow people during this time. The image also serves as a testament to the resilience and enduring nature of indigenous cultures in the face of significant historical change. Edward Sheriff Curtis, a renowned American photographer, captured this image as part of his extensive documentation of Native American tribes in the western United States. His work continues to be celebrated for its historical significance and artistic merit.
