Elbridge Warren Merrill (1868-1929)

"In the death of Elbridge Warren Merrill, Sitka, Alaska and all interested in Alaska have lost a loyal friend. He was first of all an artist. For years he devoted himself to the portrayal of the natural beauty of the section of Alaska in which his life was passed. He accomplished this through the medium of photography, developed to the highest degree of artistic perfection.... No truer friend of the Tlingit existed for he knew them and understood their customs and modes of thought." Alaska Weekly, 1929.
