EDITORS COMMENTS
Running Owl, a Piegan man from the Blackfoot Confederacy, poses for a half-length portrait in this photograph taken by Edward Sheriff Curtis around 1910. Dressed in traditional apparel, Running Owl wears a braided dress and intricately designed necklace, showcasing the rich cultural heritage of the Blackfoot people. His hair is styled in a classic manner, adding to the authenticity of the image. The photograph was taken in Montana, United States of America, during a time when the traditional way of life for Native Americans was rapidly changing. Edward Sheriff Curtis was a renowned anthropologist and ethnographer who dedicated his career to documenting the lives and cultures of Native Americans. This photograph is an invaluable contribution to the ethnographic record, providing a glimpse into the past and preserving the history and traditions of the Blackfoot Confederacy. Running Owl's gaze directly into the camera adds an intimate and engaging quality to the image, making it a powerful reminder of the human stories behind the history. The photograph is now part of the extensive collection at the Library of Congress, a testament to its historical significance and enduring value.
