Description


‘Bird I Desire’ by Napachie Pootoogook – Inuit Art – Cape Dorset 1960 print collection presented by DaVic Gallery of Native Canadian Arts.


Condition:          Good condition – Professionally restored for yellowing of the paper, tape marks top margin where some residue remains faintly visible, paper reinforced from thinning in corners from tape removal and also treated for handling marks.


Description by Artist:     No description by artist found.


Notes from DaVic Gallery:   Great find and nice restoration efforts for this 60 year old Sealskin beauty with strong bright colors. Sealskin stencil was very difficult method to work with due to the edge roughness of the skin that would result in running ink.
