"Spirit of the Ancestors"-The original of this design was painted on a drum. When I made this print I was inspired by Haida art. This print illustrates Raven bringing the first man to Earth. The face at the bottom is the first man. The human face emerging from the Raven represents the transformation of Raven. - Manuel Salazar
