The Raven and the First Men by Bill Reid, Museum of Anthropology, British Columbia, Canada CM11-05

The Raven and the First Men by Bill Reid, Museum of Anthropology, British Columbia, Canada CM11-05

Description : The work is magnificent, breathtaking, ethereal. Bathed in celestial light, the scene presents itself upon an altar-like platform. A giant cedar clam shell yawns, divulging the contents of small human-creatures cowering inside. Atop the shell, “Trickster” the Raven waits for the little creatures to emerge.

The Raven and the First Men is carved out of a block made of 106 pieces of laminated yellow cedar.
