Skaagi - Haida Salmon: Copper Series, Framed Art Card
Bill Reid, HaidaSkaagi - Haida Salmon, 1974. The Salmon, vital as a food source and most prized fish of all among the Northwest Coast First Nations, has by tradition been honored, celebrated and protected for thousands of years by all the people most dependent upon it. Symbolic of great ecological life force, five species of Salmon return every year to the rivers of British Columbia to proliferate. By drawing upon all the traditional elements of Haida art and his own imagery, and in creating this magnificent and unique design, Bill Reid again bestows the honor and respect of his people upon the salmon.
Building upon the broad range of his expression, Bill Reid translated his original designs of animal crests into limited edition Serigraph, Lithograph, Woodcut prints and drawings. This is a reproduction of one of those limited edition Serigraphs.
