EDITORS COMMENTS
This half-length portrait, titled "Youth in holiday costume-Umatilla, c1910," showcases the vibrant and intricate traditional attire of a young Umatilla man. The image, created by renowned photographer Edward Sheriff Curtis, captures the essence of Native American heritage and the rich cultural traditions of the Umatilla people. The Umatilla youth is dressed in a full feather headdress, adorned with an impressive array of feathers, representing the eagle, hawk, and other birds. The headdress is complemented by a beaded buckskin shirt, intricately embellished with colorful beads, shells, and embroidery. A beaded necklace, also made of shells and beads, encircles his neck, adding to the overall effect of this stunning traditional outfit. The photograph, taken in the early 1900s, offers a glimpse into the past, showcasing the unique and beautiful clothing worn by Native Americans during holidays and special occasions. The image is a testament to the resilience and creativity of the Umatilla people and their commitment to preserving their heritage. Edward Sheriff Curtis, a pioneering photographer and ethnographer, captured this image as part of his extensive documentation of Native American cultures. The photograph is a valuable addition to the Library of Congress, providing a visual record of the rich cultural heritage of the Umatilla people and the United States as a whole.
