EDITORS COMMENTS
This striking black and white portrait captures the wise and dignified visage of Yakotlus-Quatsino, a Kwakiutl elder from the Quatsino First Nation in British Columbia, Canada. The photograph was taken by renowned American ethnographer and photographer Edward Sheriff Curtis around 1914. Yakotlus is depicted in profile, with his deeply lined features, expressive eyes, and distinctive facial hair. He wears traditional Kwakiutl jewelry, including intricately carved and bejeweled earrings, adding to the sense of history and cultural heritage embodied in the image. The portrait offers a glimpse into the rich and complex indigenous traditions of the Pacific Northwest Coast of North America during the early 20th century. The photograph is a testament to the resilience and enduring spirit of the Native American peoples, and serves as an important historical record of their heritage and history.
