EDITORS COMMENTS
This striking black and white portrait captures the wise and resolute gaze of Lean Wolf, a Hidatsa elder from the Fort Berthold Reservation in North Dakota, taken by renowned ethnographer Edward Sheriff Curtis in 1908. Lean Wolf wears a traditional head-and-shoulders headdress, adorned with white fur and dark feathers, which is a symbol of his status and heritage as a Minatarree or War Chief in his community. The headdress is intricately trimmed with beadwork and embroidery, showcasing the exceptional craftsmanship and artistry of the Hidatsa people. Lean Wolf's beaded buckskin shirt, also adorned with beads and feathers, adds to his regal appearance. This portrait is a poignant reminder of the rich cultural heritage and traditions of the indigenous peoples of North America during the early 20th century. The image, taken by Edward Sheriff Curtis, is a significant contribution to the historical record of Native American life and is now part of the collections at the Library of Congress in Washington D.C.
