EDITORS COMMENTS
This striking black and white portrait captures the essence of a Coast Pomo man from California, adorned in traditional feather head-dress and intricate jewelry, taken by renowned photographer Edward Sheriff Curtis around 1924. The Coast Pomo people are an indigenous group from the northern coast of California, known for their distinctive cultural practices and artistic traditions. In this image, the man wears a magnificent feather headdress, which is a symbol of his status and connection to the natural world. The intricate necklace and other jewelry pieces add to his regal appearance. The portrait, taken in the 1920s, is a testament to the rich cultural heritage of the Coast Pomo people and the importance of preserving their traditions. The image is part of the extensive collection of the Library of Congress, which holds a vast archive of historical photographs documenting the diverse peoples and cultures of the United States. This portrait not only showcases the beauty and complexity of Native American fashion, but also provides a glimpse into the past and the unique history of the Coast Pomo people.
