Artist Edward Sheriff Curtis, born in 1868, was an American photographer and ethnologist known for books and photographs of American Indian culture of the late 19th and early 20th centuries. Fascinated by photography in his teens, Curtis built his first camera shortly before moving to the Seattle area in 1887. His portrait of Chief Seattle's daughter won a contest gaining the attention of scientists launching expeditions to study Native tribes. Artist Edward Sheriff Curtis joined a number of scientific expeditions and made his career as an authority on Native American culture.
Renewed interest in the culture sparked a resurgence in the enthusiasm for Edward Sheriff Curtis photography. Many of Edward Curtis' photos for sale and his books are valued for their gritty documentation and preservation of the unspoiled culture of Native Americans.

Edward Sheriff Curtis (American, 1868-1952). "Qahatika Girl" photogravure, copyright 1907. Edition 194 of 228. Title, artist's name, date, and edition number printed below image. Artist's watermark at bottom of paper. Reprinted by Classic Gravure Company, Santa Fe, New Mexico, ca. 1980. An evocative photogravure by Edward Curtis, titled "Qahatika Girl." One of Curtis's most breathtaking and iconic portraits, the child gazes directly at the viewer, her large, dark eyes and smooth complexion crowned by a centrally-parted coiffure and wrapped in a light cloth that frames her face, focusing all attention on her haunting stare. The Qahatika inhabited one of the most unforgiving regions of the Arizona desert. Curtis was deeply impressed by their ability to thrive in such an arid and desolate environment. Size of print: 12.25" W x 17.5" H (31.1 cm x 44.4 cm); of paper: 17.75" W x 22.25" H (45.1 cm x 56.5 cm); of frame: 29.5" W x 35.5" H (74.9 cm x 90.2 cm) "Qahatika Girl" was part of Edward Curtis' epic 20 volume project to document Native Americans threatened by Westward expansion in the United States entitled "The North American Indian" (1907-1930) - a masterwork that experts have estimated would cost more than $35 million to create today. To learn more about Curtis' impressive undertaking, please read Gilbert King's article in Smithsonian Magazine. It opens as follows, with King brilliantly capturing Curtis' urgency and steadfast work ethic to document the indigenous peoples before expansion would potentially eclipse their cultures, "Year after year, he packed his camera and supplies - everything he'd need for months - and traveled by foot and by horse deep into the Indian territories. At the beginning of the 20th century, Edward S. Curtis worked in the belief that he was in a desperate race against time to document, with film, sound and scholarship, the North American Indian before white expansion and the federal government destroyed what remained of their natives' way of life. For thirty years, with the backing of men like J. Pierpont Morgan and former president Theodore Roosevelt, but at great expense to his family life and his health, Curtis lived among dozens of native tribes, devoting his life to his calling until he produced a definitive and unparalleled work, The North American Indian. The New York Herald hailed as 'the most ambitious enterprise in publishing since the production of the King James Bible.'" ("Edward Curtis' Epic Project to Photograph Native Americans" by Gilbert King - Smithsonian Magazine March 21, 2012) While Curtis has had his critics who have claimed that he romanticized the natives' existence, others have argued that he was ahead of his time and depicted them with dignity and respect. In her book entitled, "Shadow Catcher: The Life and Work of Edward S. Curtis" (Bison Books, 2005) Laurie Lawlor wrote, "When judged by the standards of his time, Curtis was far ahead of his contemporaries in sensitivity, tolerance and openness to Native American cultures and ways of thinking. He sought to observe and understand by going directly into the field." This photogravure was reprinted by Classic Gravure Company in Santa Fe, New Mexico. During a 1972 auction, Classic Gravure acquired the original copper plates of Curtis's work from Charles E. Lauriat & Company in Boston. The company soon planned a reprint of Curtis's work that would be significantly more grand and close to the original than previous reprints. Excitingly, the company was being encouraged in this endeavor by Curtis's daughters Florence and Beth. Beaumont Newhall of Eastman House and Fred Eggan, an anthropologist, were recruited to write new introductions. The quality of the planned Classic Gravure edition might be fairly compared to Curtis's. The larger images would be reproduced on handmade acid-free paper containing Edward Curtis's signature as watermark, the leather portfolios holding them were to be gold-stamped, letterpress printing on archival paper would comprise the text volumes.

Reprinted by Classic Gravure Company, Santa Fe, New Mexico, ca. 1980. A vintage, limited edition, master print photograph, by Edward Curtis. This striking piece - entitled "Pavia - Taos" - presents the head and shoulders of a Native American woman in profile, draped in a white cloth as she looks right. This photogravure was part of Edward Curtis' epic 20 volume project to document Native Americans threatened by Westward expansion in the United States entitled "The North American Indian" (1907-1930) - a masterwork that experts have estimated would cost more than $35 million to create today.

Edward Curtis (American, 1868-1952). "The Kiva Stairs - San Ildefonso" photogravure, ca. 1925. Title beneath image with "From Copyright Photograph 1925 by E. L. Curtis," and "Photogravure Suffolk Eng. Co. Cambridge, Mass." "Plate 584" above image. In this piece, titled "The Kiva Stairs - San Ildefonso," Curtis presents a single Native American male standing on the roof of a Pueblo ceremonial chamber known as a kiva, which is surrounded by parapets. Leaning against the stair's wall, the figure gazes right perhaps standing guard. This photogravure was part of Edward Curtis' epic 20 volume project to document Native Americans threatened by Westward expansion in the United States entitled "The North American Indian" (1907-1930) - a masterwork that experts have estimated would cost more than $35 million to create today. Size of image: 11.5" W x 15.25" H (29.2 cm x 38.7 cm); of page: 17.5" W x 21.75" H (44.4 cm x 55.2 cm); of frame: 20.25" W x 24.25" H (51.4 cm x 61.6 cm) The accompanying text for this plate reads as follows, "Pueblo ceremonial chambers are known as kivas (the Hopi name) or estufas (the name applied to them by the Spaniards under the misapprehension that they were sudatories). They are circular or rectangular, wholly or partly subterranean, or simply cells in the communal structure that forms a pueblo. The character of the underlying soil or rock was probably the factor that determined the degree to which a kiva was made subterranean. The one here illustrated is mostly underground, and has a walled stair leading to the roof, which is surrounded by a parapet. Similar structures have been found in excavating ruined pueblos." (See Volume XVII, illustration facing page 68.) To learn more about Curtis' impressive undertaking, please read Gilbert King's article in Smithsonian Magazine.

Sotheby's hosted a series of auctions featuring art and photography in the Ginny Williams Collection in June and July of 2020. Their press release began as follows, "Born in rural Virginia in 1927, Ginny moved to Denver, Colorado in the late 1950s with her husband, Carl Williams. An avid photographer herself, who studied with Austrian-American photojournalist and photographer Ernst Haas, her collecting journey began with classical figurative photography. Her passion and keen eye eventually prompted her to open her namesake gallery in Denver in the 1980s. While her passion for photography never waned, remaining a primary focus of both her gallery and private collection, her voracious curiosity quickly widened her curatorial focus. Over time, Ginny became increasingly courageous and experimental in her selections, venturing into Abstract Expressionism and Contemporary Art and following her artists themselves through gallery shows and museum exhibitions. As the years passed, Ginny became as much of a trailblazer as the artists she collected."
