EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, titled "Taos Children," was captured by renowned American ethnographer and photographer Edward Sheriff Curtis around 1905. The image depicts four Taos children, two girls and two boys, squatting playfully on rocks at the edge of a crystal-clear stream. The serene waters reflect the towering mountains in the background, creating a breathtaking backdrop to the scene. The Taos Pueblo, a UNESCO World Heritage Site and home to the Tiwa-speaking Puebloans, is located in the picturesque town of Taos, New Mexico, United States of America. The children, dressed in traditional clothing, appear to be in the care of an elderly woman, who is seated nearby, her gaze fixed on the scene before her. This photograph is an invaluable record of the Taos people's heritage and way of life during the early 20th century. Curtis's ethnographic work, which included extensive documentation of Native American cultures, continues to be an essential resource for anthropologists and historians studying the rich and diverse indigenous peoples of North America.
