EDITORS COMMENTS
"This half-length portrait, captured by Edward Sheriff Curtis in approximately 1905, showcases the Jicarilla young woman's traditional attire and intricate hairstyle. The Jicarilla people are an indigenous tribe originally from the southwestern United States, with a rich cultural heritage that has been documented extensively by anthropologists and ethnographers. The young woman wears a traditional Jicarilla dress, adorned with vibrant colors and intricate patterns. The dress is designed to be both functional and decorative, reflecting the tribe's deep connection to the natural world. Her hair is styled in a center parting, with long, flowing locks that cascade down her back. She wears a necklace made of intricately woven beads and other natural materials, adding to her regal appearance. Despite the hostile environment and the encroachment of European settlers, the Jicarilla people have managed to preserve many aspects of their traditional culture. This portrait offers a glimpse into their history and provides a reminder of the richness and diversity of Native American heritage. Edward Sheriff Curtis was a pioneering photographer and ethnographer, who dedicated his life to documenting the lives and traditions of Native American tribes. His work, which includes thousands of photographs, films, and recordings, remains an invaluable resource for scholars and enthusiasts of Native American history and culture." Location: Library of Congress, Washington D.C., USA.
