Visual Description :
This silkscreen print is done in the colours beige, black, and red. It is executed in the traditional Northwest Coast style. The red outline of the image, and the five rows of small white oval shapes at the top, indicate that this is the front face of the Bella Bella Chest. The area with five rows of small white ovals also indicates that it is the lid of the chest. The bird design is symmetrical and fills the entire face of the chest.
