A 1922 German ethnographic survey by Ernst Fuhrmann, published by Folkwang in Hagen, presenting Tlingit and Haida carving and myth to European readers and artists of the period. The plates are duotone photographs of wooden figures, totem sections and masks lit hard against dark grounds, yielding bold silhouettes, formline eye and beak motifs, and strong tonal contrast.
