The Gift of the Face: Portraiture and Time in Edward S. Curtis's The North American Indian
Shamoon Zamir
In this major reappraisal of Edward Curtis's work, Shamoon Zamir argues that Curtis's photography engages meaningfully with the crisis of culture and selfhood brought on by the dramatic transformations of Native societies. This crisis is captured profoundly, and with remarkable empathy, in Curtis's images of the human face.
