EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures a significant moment in Alaskan history. Taken in the late 19th century, it showcases a group of Eskimos from Port Clarence, Alaska. These individuals were brought to the United States by the Reindeer Commission, Bureau of Ethnology, in 1894. The image portrays an Eskimo family consisting of a father, mother, and their children. Dressed in traditional clothing including mukluks (soft boots made from animal skins), they stand together with pride. The details on their attire reflect their cultural heritage and connection to nature. Although unidentified by name or tribe, this portrait serves as a testament to the diversity and resilience of indigenous communities during that era. It offers us a glimpse into the lives of these Alaskan natives who embarked on an unknown journey as immigrants to America. The print is a powerful reminder of our shared history and highlights the importance of preserving indigenous cultures for future generations. It invites contemplation about how far we have come since then while acknowledging that there is still much work to be done towards achieving equality and understanding among all people. Granger Art on Demand has beautifully captured this historical moment through their lens without any commercial intentions but rather with an aim to educate viewers about our collective pasts.
