Dealing
with Change and the Persistence of Tradition
|
|
Ericson's images of Native Americans
are in continuous demand for documentation and as illustrations.
Ericson was not an ethnographer, and so he documented the lives
of Indian people as other photographers of his time would have done.
His images record them and their traditions as they as communities
and induvudual made necessary accomadations to the radical chanes
thrust upon them, these local residents are shown in both posed
shots and casual encounters. It was a time of great change, and
Ericson's photographs are one record of that period.
