It was the end of an era, a time e North American Indian culture was about to fold,its tepee to make way for the mixed blessings of modern civilization. Where once the buffalo roamed, the white man ruled. Tribes dissolved. Villages turned into reservations. The North American Indian was about to become a museum piece. Or, maybe, a conversation piece in a cigar store. The 20th century Indian and his 19th century counterpart were totem poles apart. Into this changing western world came an historian-photographer bent on capturing the American Indian for posterity. Using his box camera, tenacity and his sense of history, Edward S. Curtis amassed a library of photographs that is identified today as one of America's most complete visual records of its native civilizations. Fifty of Curtis' 1,500 prints - all original, gold-tone photographs - are on display, today through Dec. 19, at the University of San Diego's Founders Gallery, open weekdays from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. Reproductions of the photo- graphs will be available for purchase.

*Photos,

cONnNUEO FllOM C• I Curtis' pictures were taken throughout the United States between 1907 and 1920. USD's collection, including about 200 photos, was donated by a private individual who wishes to remain anonymous. "Curtis belongs in a category of special people who recognized that a cultural history was disappearing, and he captured as much as possible," said Dr. James Moriar- ty, USD history professor. Moriarty will discuss the cultural and historical signifi- cance of Curtis' phtotographs at 1:30 p.m. Friday at the gallery. Curtis visited 80 western tribes and took more than 40,000 gold-tone plates in assembling his collection. "Curtis :,vas unique in that he was concerned in preserv- ing the faces and the mood of the Indians," said Moriarty. "He has some of the last photographs of the Mission Indians, early settlers in San Diego, who, by that time, were acculturated by the Spanish and Mexicans. "It is interesting to note that none of the photos are candid. They were all posed. Curtis had a great sense of, art, and he would silhouette the Indian figures against a horizon. Or he would use a spear or bow and arrow as a prop. "The purist, of course, would frown on this. But what Curtis was after was the sense of the native American Indian. He was interested in the faces, in portraits. He looked at them the way a sculptor would. "He was not a scientist. He wanted to leave records of what they looked like. He photographed Geronimo and American Horse, the great warrior. In these pictures he captured the sense of what it was to be an Indian, with feeling and passion." The Indians willingly accepted Curtis' curiosity, said oriarty. "They were accustomed to people drawing pictures of them from the 1700s, in British colonial times. They were sophisticated about it." One of Curtis' foremost admirers was Theodore Roose- velt, who wrote the forward to the 20-volume study Curtis compiled which was sponsored by the Pierpont Morgan Foundation. "The set of photos we have was taken to the White House and signed by Roosevelt," said Moriarity. "Some of these may be worth as much as $1,000 apiece. "The ones that impressed me most were of the historic Indian leaders of the Great Plains. "The Plains Indians were known for their individual- ism. The individual attempted to function within his envi- ronment, without the organized cohesiveness we under- stood to be most prominent. "Other tribes, more into a sedentary farming lifestyle were less individualistic." '
