In this striking photograph titled 'Resilient Sioux Companion', the viewer is greeted with an intimate glimpse into the harsh reality of life in 1898 for the Sioux tribe. The subject of the photo, a poor dog, stands proudly and defiantly with its head held high, surrounded by a desolate landscape. Its fur is matted and its body thin, yet there is a glimmer of resilience in its eyes.
As we take in the image, it's impossible not to be moved by the emotional power it holds.
