EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, titled "In San Ildefonso, c1927" by Edward Sheriff Curtis, offers a glimpse into the daily life of the Tewa Indians in the picturesque village of San Ildefonso, located in Santa Fe County, New Mexico, United States. The image features three Tewa men engaged in various activities outside of a traditional adobe building. In the foreground, a man stands on a ladder, reaching for a spot on the exterior wall, likely maintaining the mud-brick structure. Another man is perched atop the roof, possibly repairing or adding to the multi-storied, terraced buildings that are characteristic of Pueblo architecture. The third man, clad in traditional clothing, stands near the entrance of the building, which is adorned with colorful geometric designs and intricate brickwork. The image captures the essence of the Tewa community's rich cultural heritage and their deep connection to the land and their ancestral traditions. The photograph was taken during the 20th century, a time when the Tewa people were undergoing significant changes as a result of increasing contact with European-American settlers and the wider world. This photograph is an important ethnographic and anthropological record of the Tewa people and their way of life, and serves as a reminder of the importance of preserving indigenous cultures and traditions.
