Presented in this lot is an Edward Sheriff Curtis Intaglio Photogravure "Apsaroke War Group" Limited Edition, 57/228, Framed, COA included. Edward Sherriff Curtis completed perhaps the earliest and most extensive photographic survey of the Native American tribes of the West. A Wisconsin native, Curtis moved to Seattle where he set up a photography studio and began to explore and photograph the settlements and peoples of the nearby Suquamish and Duwamish tribes. A watershed moment for Curtis occurred in 1906 when financier J. P. Morgan funded a major multi-year project that sent Curtis to photograph and otherwise record a wide range of American Indian tribes, with Curtis eventually taking more than 40,000 photographs of over 80 tribes. This monumental archive has become Curtis' lasting legacy long after his 1952 death, and his works have seen a revival in interest in recent years with scholars casting him as a visual anthropologist. Today, his photographs are found in public and private collections across the United States. The intaglio photogravure is marked on the bottom, reading from left to right: APSAROKE WAR GROUP, From Copyright Photograph 1905 by E. S. Curtis, Photogravure John Andrew & Son, 57/228.
