EDITORS COMMENTS
This head-and-shoulders portrait, titled "Sù^-Donii (Osier-Willow Blossom)-Pyramid Lake Paviotso," was captured by renowned American photographer Edward Sheriff Curtis around 1924. The image features an elderly Native American woman from the Pyramid Lake Paiute tribe, dressed in traditional apparel adorned with osier-willow blossoms. The photograph was most likely taken near Pyramid Lake, Nevada, which is a significant geographical feature in the region. Edward Sheriff Curtis was a pioneering figure in documenting Native American cultures during the early 20th century. His work, including this portrait, is considered a valuable contribution to the historical record of indigenous peoples in North America. The black-and-white image showcases the woman's wrinkled features and the intricate details of her traditional clothing, which includes a hooded dress and a headpiece made of osier willows adorned with blossoms. This photograph is a poignant reminder of the rich heritage and traditions that have shaped the history of the United States. The image is a testament to the resilience and beauty of the Native American people, and serves as a powerful reminder of the importance of preserving cultural traditions and histories. The portrait is a significant addition to the vast collection of Native American imagery at the Library of Congress, which holds a wealth of information on the diverse cultures and histories of indigenous peoples in the United States.
