SynopsisThe book includes many regions, tribes and ages of people, and in some ways even some of the more negative aspects of his photographs are invaluable because they informed much of the mainstream American (worldwide, really) mythology that surrounds First Nations peoples of North America. The photos are somewhere between documentary and romanticism. Where he could have taken straight documentary photos of poverty and tattered Western/white clothing, he instead staged warrior meetings on horseback and the like., Edward Curtis was one of the great photographers of the American West, who recorded graphically the face of the American Indian at the end of the nineteenth century and the beginning of the twentieth. This is a large-format selection of his most attractive.
