EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, titled "Little Hawk-Brulé" and created by renowned American anthropologist Edward Sheriff Curtis in around 1907, showcases a proud and defiant portrait of a Native American man named Little Hawk from the Brule band of the Teton Sioux tribe. The image captures Little Hawk's strong and determined gaze, as he faces the camera with his head and shoulders adorned in traditional Plains Indian clothing and accessories. Little Hawk's outfit includes a fringed buckskin dress, a colorful kerchief tied around his neck, and intricately beaded earrings, neckerchief, and moccasins. His long, flowing hair is styled in a traditional manner, adding to the authenticity of the portrait. The background is simple, allowing the focus to remain on the subject and his traditional attire. Edward Sheriff Curtis was a pioneering figure in ethnography and ethnology, documenting the lives and cultures of Native American tribes across North America. This photograph is a testament to his dedication to preserving the heritage and traditions of indigenous peoples, and serves as a reminder of the rich history and diversity of Native American cultures. The image is now part of the vast collection of the Library of Congress, a testament to its historical significance and enduring value.
