"Author's Camp Among the Spokan", a historic photogravure captured by Edward S. Curtis in 1910. It was published as a text-volume illustration in Volume 7 of Curtis's groundbreaking 20-volume series, The North American Indian. The photograph shows five canvas wall tents erected in a wooded clearing. Edward S. Curtis himself is visible in the center of the camp, while Spokane (Spokan) tribal men and women on horseback are gathered along the left side of the frame. This image documents Curtis’s field camp on the Spokane Reservation in Washington State. It perfectly illustrates the massive logistical effort behind his project, capturing the moment his research team interacted, interviewed, and lived alongside the tribes they were documenting.
