EDITORS COMMENTS
This head-and-shoulders portrait, titled "Little Dog-Brulé," was captured by renowned American photographer Edward Sheriff Curtis in approximately 1907. The Native American man in the image, a member of the Teton Sioux or Lakota tribe, proudly gazes to his right with a strong and resolute expression. His grey hair, adorned with intricately woven feathers, cascades down his shoulders, framing his weathered yet distinguished face. The man wears a traditional costume that reflects his rich cultural heritage. The embroidered dress he dons, embellished with colorful beads and geometric patterns, is a testament to the artistry and craftsmanship of his people. The portrait, which showcases the man's proud profile, also highlights the importance of preserving the traditions and history of the First Nations people of North America. This photograph, a valuable piece of ethnographic and anthropological significance, is a poignant reminder of the indigenous cultures that have shaped the continent's history. The image, held in the prestigious Library of Congress, is a testament to Curtis's dedication to documenting the lives and customs of Native American tribes during the early 20th century.
