EDITORS COMMENTS
This striking photograph captures the revered Cheyenne Peyote leader, an elderly man with a wise and introspective expression, seated three-quarter length and facing left. The image, taken by renowned ethnographer and photographer Edward Sheriff Curtis around 1927, offers a glimpse into the traditional attire and hairstyle of the Plains Indian people during the early 20th century. The man wears a simple coat and dress, the fabric plain and unadorned, reflecting the humility and respect for nature that was central to the Cheyenne way of life. His long, braided hair, plaited and adorned with natural plant materials, is a testament to the deep connection between the people and the land. The man's hands are folded in his lap, suggesting a sense of calm and contemplation. This portrait, now held in the Library of Congress, offers a valuable record of the Cheyenne people and their cultural heritage, and serves as a reminder of the rich and complex history of Native American communities in North America.
