Condition of Lots: All of the items are to be considered, unless otherwise noted in the description, in good condition. The definition of “good” when used in reference to condition, describes an object as having had no major damage or repair but as with the nature of the material, may show minor surface wear, discolouration etc., which indicates the acceptable wear that the piece may acquire with age. If you are particular about minor flaws, you should examine the pieces in person or have our staff answer any questions before bidding. Sizes are approximate.

One night while they were sleeping they saw a white fox eating the inside of the Giant’s nose. The Giant said: ‘Something inside my nose is very itchy” and as he said so a white fox came out of his nose. He had a skin bag but as there was no meat in it he did not want to use it as a pillow because he always was using meat as a pillow and every morning there was no meat that the eskimos [sic] had got. He was eating all the animals caught, but the eskimos [sic] were scared of saying anything. When they moved to get away from him they killed him because he was eating entire animals, all their catches and even eskimos [sic], which were found in his stomach.”

The composite image, difficult to interpret in its entirety, obviously refers to a masked shaman. He represents the spirit of the land...engaged in fishing, eating and conjuring success for the hunter. The print forecasts the joy of eating. Tookoome’s drawings is always explicit; the elements of the composition are clearly defined by lines printed from stone, with the colour being applied by stencil.” Furneaux, Patrick and Leo Rosshandler, Ernst Roch, ed., Art of the Eskimo: Prints, Signum Press, 1974, pp. 206-7

Est. $400/600 Note: “The Nascopie was a Hudson’s Bay Company resupply ship that sank,... just outside the community in 1947. The ship broke its back on the reef but stayed high and dry long enough for people in the community to strip it before it sank. So it was a great resource. People went back and back again as long as they could and took everything salvageable from the ship. It was a treasure trove, and Napachie is the only artist to have drawn it.”

Est. $500/700 Note: “Hoot”, possibly the last print created by the artist before her death in 2006, is featured on the cover of the 2006 annual Cape Dorset print catalogue. According to the catalogue’s forward, Meelia’s “Hoot” was made the cover image as it “[set] the tone for the collection; full of life, colour and humour.”

Est. $400/600 Note: Kenojuak made this image on a lino block that was adhered to a piece of maple, and we printed it on the Vandercook proofing press. She engraved it herself and Pitseolak printed it on the old press - it was the first time we ever used that particular method in this studio. But it echoes back to the very beginning, when images were carved in linoleum and printed by hand. This used multiple colours, though, including silver in the blend, and Kenojuak registered them herself. It’s a very subtle, beautiful print.
