Eugene Alfred’s striking Salmon Boy Mask is a one-of-a-kind masterpiece based on a crucial Tlingit legend.

The legend tells of a boy who was very disrespectful towards the Salmon, failing to heed the warnings of his elders. One day, the boy slipped into the water and was taken to live with the Salmon People. It was there that the boy was taught the importance of respecting the Salmon – a lesson which he took back to village and shared with other young members of his community.
