EDWARD CURTIS OROTONE, THREE
EDWARD CURTIS OROTONE, THREE CHIEFSEdward S. Curtis (American, 1868-1952) orotone, "The Three Chiefs." Image depicts three Native American Blackfoot chiefs on horseback, on a Montana prairie under a clouded sky. Curtis signature in the negative lower right with copyright lower left. Orotone is framed in its original Curtis-designed "batwing" frame, and backed in the frame by an advertising broadside promoting a movie based on Curtis's North American Indian project. It reads: "Curtis, Author of the North American Indian tells the intimate story of Indian life with Motion Pictures of esoteric rites / Incomparable Art Slides and thrilling musical scenic effects by Mr. Curtis' Full Orchestra rendering Special Indian Music, arranged by Henry E. Gilbert". Sight - 10 1/4" H x 13 1/4" W. Framed - 15 3/4" H x 18 3/4" W. Circa 1910. Note: "The Three Chiefs" is widely regarded as one of Curtis's most important photographs. He captured the image during a two week stay on a Blackfoot Reservation in Montana during the summer of 1900, and it was published as a photogravure in his documentary venture "The North American Indian". There, Curtis described this particular image as "Three proud old leaders of their people. A picture of the primal upland prairies with their waving grass and limpid streams. A glimpse of the life and conditions which are on the verge of extinction." Provenance: Private East Tennessee collection. (Higher-resolution photos are available at www.caseantiques.com)

The photograph with a green mat is attached to the matte with framer's tape; therefore, the margins could not be inspected. Throughout the photograph, there are several scattered areas with creases, particularly along the right margin. Along the verso, there are pen inscriptions and skimming to the lower right corner. The other photograph is toned and adhered to the paper along the upper margin; the paper is affixed to the mat. There is minute loss to the lower right and left corners.
