EDITORS COMMENTS
This half-length portrait, captured by the renowned ethnographer Edward Sheriff Curtis around 1924, showcases a man proudly wearing traditional Pomo dance costume. The image, reminiscent of the 1920s era, presents the subject with a strong and confident gaze, facing directly forward. The man's facial hair, consisting of a well-groomed moustache, adds to his distinguished appearance. The intricately designed Pomo costume is a testament to the rich cultural heritage of the indigenous peoples of North America. The man wears a colorful, feathered headdress, adorned with various feathers and beads, which sits atop his head. His upper body is covered in a white, fringed dress, while his lower body is adorned with a black, fringed skirt. The costume is completed with intricate, geometric patterns and designs, reflecting the unique artistic traditions of the Pomo people. This image, which was likely used as a book illustration, provides a glimpse into the past, offering a window into the history and traditions of the Pomo people. The Library of Congress, a renowned cultural institution, houses this valuable piece of American history, preserving it for future generations to learn from and appreciate.
