Key item features

  • Title: Shows As He Goes, Half-Length Portrait, 1905
  • Description: Edward S. Curtis created this half-length portrait of a young Indian while visiting Apache Indian groups from 1903-1907. The image displays Curtis' remarkable ability to fashion portraits incorporating traditional elements of dress and distinctive aspects of his sitters' personalities. Moved "to form a comprehensive and permanent record of the important tribes of the United States and Alaska that retain to a considerable degree their . . . customs and traditions," before they vanished, Curtis labored for 30 years to produce his 20 volume work The North American Indian (1905-1930) illustrated with high quality photoengravings taken from his glass plate negatives. The Library of Congress acquired more than 2,400 photographic prints from this project through copyright deposit, although only one third were ever published. (Source: Exhibit caption).
  • Creator: Curtis, Edward S., 1868-1952, photographer
  • Subjects: Indians of North America--1900-1910, Shows As He Goes
  • Collection: Curtis Collection. The Edward S. Curtis Collection offers a unique glimpse into Curtis’s work with indigenous cultures. The silver-gelatin photographic prints include a large number of individual or group portraits, as well as traditional and ceremonial dress, dwellings and other structures, agriculture, arts and crafts, rites and ceremonies, dances, games, food preparation, transportation, and scenery.
