Here’s a bunch of pictures made by Edward S. Curtis in 1906. The whole set of 1,500 photographs released in 20 volumes can be found in the book entitled "The North American Indian.” Curtis' goal was not just to photograph, but to document, as much American Indian traditional life as possible before that way of life disappeared. Curtis got $75,000 for his work from J.P.Morgan.

These are the pictures of Apache tribe made by Edward S. Curtis in the beginning of the 20th century.

Edward S. Curtis took photos of many American Indian tribes, which were considered a vanishing race at the time. His photographs remain memorable icons of the American Indians.

I hope you’ll enjoy it as I did.
