In a Piegan lodge. Photographer: Curtis, Edward Sheriff
- Scope & Content:
-
Portrait of the Piegans Little Plume and his son Yellow Kidney seated in a lodge. 'Little Plume with his son Yellow Kidney occupies the position of honor, the space at the rear opposite the entrance. The picture is full of suggestion of the various Indian activities. In a prominent place lie the ever-present pipe and its accessories on the tobacco cutting-board. From the lodge-poles hang the buffalo-skin shield, the long medicine-bundle, an eagle-wing fan, and deerskin articles for accoutering the horse. The upper end of the rope is attached to the intersection of the lodge-poles, and in stormy weather the lower end is made fast to a stake near the centre of the floor space.' In addition to the various Indian artefacts shown in this interior, an alarm clock was originally included, placed between the two men as a symbol of luxury, but was retouched out of the picture by Curtis.
