Item Details
Description

Edward S. Curtis (1868-1952) The Apache A large-format photogravure; plate number 7; titled and signed within the plate, framed. 15 1/2 x 11 1/2 in. Frame size 26 x 22 in. Footnotes: Edward Sheriff Curtis is best known for his herculean effort to document the North American Indian through photographs and recordings of song and speech. As the western United States was developed, he endeavored to record the cultures of the land's original inhabitants, creating a body of work that at the time defined America's popular vision of Native American culture. Curtis began his fieldwork in 1906 with the support of financier J. Pierpont Morgan and by 1930 he had documented more than 80 tribes and made over 40,000 photographs.
