EDITORS COMMENTS
This half-length portrait, taken by Alfred Lee Broadbent in 1894 or 1895, showcases seven men facing the camera with unwavering gaze. The photograph is part of Broadbent's extensive collection of documentary images of Alaska and the islands off its northern coast, which offers a unique glimpse into the lives of the early settlers in the region. The men, dressed in heavy coats and hats, exude a sense of resilience and determination, reflecting the challenging conditions of the Alaskan frontier during that era. Their stoic expressions and direct eye contact with the camera convey a sense of pride and self-assurance. The image, with its high contrast and sharp details, is a testament to Broadbent's mastery of photographic techniques during the 19th century. The men are arranged in a neat row, adding to the formal and orderly composition of the photograph. This group portrait offers a fascinating insight into the culture and heritage of Alaska during the late 1800s, providing a valuable record of the people who braved the harsh climate and conditions to make a new life in this remote and untamed land. The photograph is a reminder of the rich history and diverse population that have shaped the unique identity of Alaska and the United States as a whole.
