EDITORS COMMENTS
This black and white portrait, titled "A Serrano woman of Tejon" by Edward Sheriff Curtis, captures the essence of an elderly Serrano woman from the late 1920s. The image, taken in California, USA, showcases the woman's strong and resilient character as she gazes directly at the camera with a steady and unwavering gaze. Dressed in traditional clothing, the woman wears a simple yet intricately designed head dress adorned with feathers and beads, which adds to her regal presence. Her wrinkled face, etched with the marks of time and experience, tells a story of a life lived in the rugged terrain of the American West. The woman's headdress, a symbol of her heritage and cultural identity, is a testament to the rich history and traditions of the Serrano people. The portrait, taken during the 1920s, is a poignant reminder of the indigenous communities that once thrived in North America before the onslaught of European colonization. The Library of Congress holds this precious piece of history in its vast collection, preserving it for future generations to appreciate the beauty and diversity of the human experience.
