Edward S. Curtis embarked on a thirty-year project to document the lives of Native North Americans, resulting in "Sacred Legacy," a book featuring nearly 200 of his finest photographs that capture the essence of his life's work. The images, reproduced from high-quality platinum, gold, and silver prints, are showcased with fidelity to Curtis's original works. Curtis's project, "The North American Indian," spans 20 volumes with 4,000 pages and 2,200 images, depicting over 80 tribes, and serves as the organizing framework for this book. Curated by Curtis authority Christopher Cardozo, it includes themes like spirituality and arts, offering a powerful testament to Curtis's vision and commitment.
