The Tlingit Totem Pole in the Village – This is how it could look

Above a Tlingit totem pole with five stylised figures from bottom to top: bear, salmon, raven, thunderbird and human in formline style. Below a village with three painted plank-houses, a dugout canoe and a salmon drying-rack. A respectful tribute to the Tlingit of the Pacific Northwest Coast.
