Item Details

Description

Lot 77
CLAUDE DAVIDSON (1924-1991) HAIDA, MASSET
Model Totem Pole, 1980

argillite, 14.25 x 3.5 x 3.5 in (36.2 x 8.9 x 8.9 cm)
signed and inscribed, "CLAUDE DAVIDSON / HAIDA BC".

Provenance
A Vancouver Collection.

Claude Davidson, the grandson of the renowned Haida artist Charles Edenshaw and the son of Robert Davidson Sr., was Chief of the village of Dadens on Langara Island, Haida Gwaii. He began as a fisherman and took up argillite carving in the mid 1950s, encouraging his sons Robert and Reg to do the same. He was instrumental in organizing and supervising the raising of Robert’s pole in 1969, the first to be erected in the village of Masset in living memory. This fine pole depicts an Eagle seated upon a Bear holding the “skil” hat of a Raven, who has a Frog in its beak and sits atop a Beaver holding a stick in its paws.
