Looking into his eyes, I felt the dignity of a strong, resilient leader, dressed in what appears to be traditional attire. His facial expression portrays the essence of the struggles he confronted during a tumultuous period in Native American History. Chief Sitting Bear was photographed by Edward Curtis circa 1908.
