EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures the stoic presence of Curley, a member of the Crow tribe and one of General Custer's trusted scouts. Taken by an American photographer in the 19th century, this portrait showcases Curley adorned with a necklace made of intricate beads, his hair styled in traditional plaits. Curley's significance extends beyond his striking appearance; he is known for surviving the infamous Battle of Little Bighorn. This historical event, also referred to as the Great Sioux War, marked a significant conflict between Native American tribes and European settlers in North America. In this image, we witness Curley's resilience and strength as he stands proudly in his tribal attire. His piercing gaze reflects both determination and wisdom gained from experiences on the battlefield. The photograph serves as a reminder of the struggles faced by Native Americans during the American Indian Wars. It offers us a glimpse into their rich cultural heritage while honoring individuals like Curley who played crucial roles as scouts during these tumultuous times. As we contemplate this powerful image captured through photography, it prompts us to reflect on our shared history and appreciate the diversity that has shaped America into what it is today.
