Description

‘Festive Bird’ by Pitseolak Ashoona, RCA, OC – Inuit Art – Cape Dorset 1970 print collection presented by DaVic Gallery of Native Canadian Arts.

Condition:  Good to Very Good: Professionally restored for paper handling marks… faint discoloration remains lightly visible along margins of paper and some tape stain faintly visible verso from previous framing.  Some apparent humidity staining very light only visible under specific light conditions lower right verso of paper (see picture # 4).  Mild skinning of paper lower left area.   Image is lovely strong and bright.

Description by Artist:     No description by artist found.

Notes from DaVic Gallery:   Beautiful and amazing execution by Kananginak Pootoogook for this intricate stonecut print in six distinct colors of an exuberant bird with approximately 120 colorful feathers that is hard to imagine it is in mid-flight.

Reference picture # 5 for size comparison with letter size paper.
