EDITORS COMMENTS
This striking head-and-shoulders portrait captures the powerful gaze of a Crow man, known as Chief Child, photographed by Edward S. Curtis in 1908. The image offers a glimpse into the rich cultural heritage of the Apsáalooke people, also known as the Crow Nation, from Montana, United States. The man wears traditional apparel, including a braided dress and intricately designed clothing, which reflects the deep connection between the Crow people and their land. The photograph, taken during the early 20th century, is a testament to the enduring traditions and resilience of indigenous communities in North America. The portrait also underscores the significance of anthropological and ethnographic documentation during this period, as the Crow people's customs and way of life were rapidly changing with the encroachment of European-American settlers. The Library of Congress holds this valuable historical record, which continues to be an essential resource for scholars, educators, and anyone interested in understanding the diverse cultural heritage of the American West.
