Totem Poles at Alert Bay, B.C.
Totem Poles at Alert Bay, B.C.
2009.5.1.66 · Item · [ca. 1930]
Parte de Taylor-Baxter Family Photograph Collection

Photograph depicts two large totem poles on either side of the front steps of Kwakwaka'wakw cedar plank houses. An unidentified woman and three small children can be seen in foreground. A second building stands in background on right. Handwritten annotation on recto of photograph states: "New Hazelton". However, this annotation has been determined to be incorrect; this photograph is believed to depict Alert Bay. The nearest tall pole seen in the picture may be "Raven of the Sea" carved by Mungo Martin in 1902.
