EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph, titled "The Talk," by Edward Sheriff Curtis captures a poignant moment in the lives of three Crow (Apsáalooke or Apsaroke) men from Montana, United States of America, in the early 1900s. Seated in a rocky area with low-growing shrubs, the men engage in a deep conversation, their horses resting nearby. The men are adorned with intricate feather headdresses and other traditional garments, signifying their rich cultural heritage. Edward Sheriff Curtis, an American anthropologist, photographer, and ethnographer, captured this image during a time when the Plains Indians' way of life was rapidly changing due to the encroachment of European-American settlers. Curtis dedicated his career to documenting the lives and cultures of Native American tribes before they were lost to history. The photograph is a testament to the resilience and endurance of the Crow people, who have inhabited the Great Plains for centuries. It also highlights the deep connection between the Crow people and their animals, which played a crucial role in their daily lives and cultural traditions. This image is a valuable historical record of a bygone era and serves as a reminder of the importance of preserving and celebrating the diverse cultures and histories of Native American tribes. The photograph is now part of the collections of the Library of Congress, Washington D.C., and is an essential addition to any collection focusing on American history, anthropology, or ethnography.
