EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, titled "Bull Snake" and dated 1908, was taken by the renowned American ethnographer and photographer, Edward Sheriff Curtis. The image showcases a head-and-shoulders portrait of a Native American man, identified as a member of the Absaroka or Crow people, wearing traditional clothing and adorned with a feather in his hair. The man, who is believed to be from Montana, United States of America, gazes directly at the camera with a serious expression, adding an air of authenticity and intimacy to the image. The photograph is an important historical document, providing a glimpse into the cultural heritage of the Crow people during the early 20th century. The man's clothing, which includes a fringed dress or shirt and leggings, is typical of the traditional attire worn by the Crow people during that time. The feather in his hair is a symbol of his connection to his culture and the natural world. Edward Sheriff Curtis was a pioneer in the field of anthropology and ethnology, and his work has been instrumental in documenting the cultures and histories of Native American communities. This photograph, along with many others in his extensive collection, is a valuable resource for scholars, historians, and anyone interested in the rich and diverse history of the American West and its indigenous peoples.
