EDITORS COMMENTS
This portrait captures the essence of an Apache girl in the early 1900s. Taken by renowned photographer Edward Sheriff Curtis in 1903, the image showcases the girl's strong and proud gaze as she faces the camera, adorned in traditional Native American attire. The girl wears a bead necklace, intricately crafted with colorful beads, that cascades down her chest, adding a vibrant touch to her outfit. A blanket, likely made from wool or fur, is draped around her shoulders, providing a sense of warmth and protection. The sepia tone of the photograph lends an air of nostalgia and historical authenticity, transporting us back to a time when Native American cultures were still thriving, yet undergoing significant change. The image is a poignant reminder of the rich heritage and resilience of indigenous peoples in North America during the early 20th century. This portrait is part of the extensive collection of the Library of Congress, a testament to the importance of preserving and celebrating the diverse histories and traditions of our country's past.
