Other versions

This image is a digitally restored version of File:Inupiat Family from Noatak, Alaska, 1929, Edward S. Curtis.jpg to remove scratches, spots, artifacts, water or stains, hairs, and overall deterioration. Contrast was decreased. The image was cropped to remove the frame. Remaining edges were filled in or darkened with cloning, burn, and healing brushes. The image was not stretched, warped, or rotated as it was already straight during the scanning process. Restoration work was performed on the original TIFF file downloaded by the U.S. Library of Congress Prints & Photographs Online Catalog.
