Before the Storm,
EDITORS COMMENTS
a captivating photogravure print by Edward Sheriff Curtis, depicts a moment of raw, untamed beauty from the early 1900s in North America. The image, captured around 1906, portrays four Apaches on horseback, silhouetted against a backdrop of ominous storm clouds. The Apaches, dressed in traditional garb, appear focused and determined as they navigate the open countryside, seemingly unfazed by the impending weather. Edward Sheriff Curtis, a renowned American photographer, captured this historic moment with exceptional skill and artistry. The print, with its high contrast and intricate detail, showcases the power and resilience of both the human spirit and the natural world. The horses, too, are a testament to the era, their powerful forms a reminder of the vital role animals played in the daily lives of these indigenous peoples. This evocative image, part of the vast collection at the Library of Congress, offers a glimpse into the rich heritage of the American West during the early 20th century. The storm clouds looming overhead add an element of drama and intrigue, while the Apaches on horseback embody the strength and determination of a people deeply connected to their land. The photomechanical print, a product of Curtis' innovative techniques, stands as a testament to the enduring power of photography to capture and preserve history. The image, titled "Before the Storm," serves as a poignant reminder of the past, inviting us to reflect on the complex and often challenging relationship between humans and the natural world. This powerful and evocative print offers a glimpse into a time long past, inviting us to appreciate the beauty and resilience of both the human spirit and the natural world.
