Emily VanDerhule chose this photo of Sitting Bull and his family. "His face and body language convey an unhappy message. Is he resting his head on his hand, shielding Sally Battles from his view or scratching his head wondering 'how did I get here?'” VanDerhule says. “Captain Bentzoni seems so smug sitting on his horse. I assume he was a very short man and spent a lot of time up on his horse." Photo by William R. Cross.
