Recherche dans la collection - Three men [David Martin, Henry Hunt, Mungo Martin] work on carving a totem pole

Title based on the following caption from the NFB Photo Story: Indian artists had an almost limitless choice of characters to choose from and few clear-cut rules governed the choice or order of the figures on the pole. Thus the only persons who fully understood the carvings were the owner and those to whom he recited the legends, as was invariably done at a tribal dance when the pole was raised. However some knowledge of Indian art and mythology will take the outsider a good part of the way in unlocking the secrets of B.C.'s picturesque totem-poles.
