Clearly, he was a unique character to live the life he did and create this body of work. Regardless of his critics, I'm grateful for the legacy he left us.

These photos are epic. I've seen many before and am in awe of what it took for Curtis to create these photos, which show respect and humility, honoring his subject in an exceptional way.

I marvel at Curtis' dedication, especially in light of the fact he began working in a time before the convenience of modern transportation (Ford's Model T was just going into production and the first manned helicopter flight was just taking place in 1907). The pure physicality of getting to some of these locations was a feat unto itself. I can only imagine the challenges along the way. To produce this body of work says a lot about the depths of his passion. I'm glad you enjoyed reading about him. Well said, Namita.

The fact that he removed modern elements from his images was only to reinforce and portray what life was really like before the invasion of foreign people and their cultural artifacts. Lovely read, Becky! Anyone who pursues passion at the cost of the material comforts of life is a true chronicler.

Lovely read, Becky!
