EDITORS COMMENTS
This three-quarter length portrait, captured by the renowned photographer Edward Sheriff Curtis in approximately 1929, showcases the Noatak child in traditional Alaskan attire. Seated and facing the camera with a direct gaze, the child's expression exudes a sense of curiosity and confidence. Dressed in fur clothing, the child's apparel is a testament to the rich heritage and cultural traditions of the indigenous people of Alaska. The monochrome image, reminiscent of the 1920s and 1930s, adds to the timeless quality of the photograph. This portrait was likely used as an illustration in one of Curtis' influential books, documenting the lives and customs of Native American and Alaska Native communities. The image, now held in the Library of Congress, serves as a valuable record of the past and a reminder of the diverse and vibrant cultures that continue to thrive in the present day.
