Model Totem Pole Item Number: 3623/2 from the MOA: University of British Columbia

Description

Model totem pole with three carved figures. From top, a male figure with feather headdress and green-blue eye mask with red marking. The carved headdress has six upright feathers, which increase in size and then decrease again giving the headdress a curved appearance, and an ovoid painted above the figure's head. The seated male figure holds an upside-down grey fish in front of his body, and sits on top of the head of a large animal figure (sea-wolf or sea-bear?). The animal looks downward and sits on a mound creating an s-shape to its reddish-brown body.
