EDITORS COMMENTS
This portrait captures the strong and proud gaze of a Crow Indian man, known as Ghost Bear, in Montana around 1908. Edward Sheriff Curtis, a renowned American anthropologist, ethnologist, and photographer, captured this image during the height of the 20th century. The subject wears traditional attire, including a beaded buckskin shirt, a bead choker adorned with shell conchos, and a large medal on a strand of metal beads. His most striking feature is the elaborate feather headdress, which adds a regal and majestic touch to his appearance. The intricately beaded and embroidered clothing, as well as the featherwork and jewelry, showcase the rich cultural heritage of the Apsáalooke, or Crow, people. This photograph offers a glimpse into the fashion, customs, and traditions of the American West during the early 1900s, providing valuable insights into the lives of indigenous communities and their connection to their land. The image is a testament to the enduring legacy of the Crow people and their proud history, which continues to inspire and captivate audiences today.
