Provenance:

Acquired from the Estate of the Late Warren Schmitke, Calgary, Alberta;
Private Collection, Calgary, Alberta

Note:

Collector Warren Schmitke was based in Norman Wells, NWT (population 800) for 22 years before moving to Calgary in the early 2000s to work for Esso. After leaving Esso, Schmitke took on many different roles in the northern community, including bus driver (of the only town bus), sheriff, magistrate and ultimately, curator of the local museum. It was during this period that Schmitke began to travel and to develop an expertise in collectible ceramics, textiles, glassware and antiques. He visited museums and galleries and traveled to Turkey, Croatia, Northern Europe, Afghanistan, Australia, Russia and Burma (now Myanmar). Schmitke made a significant legacy gift to the Glenbow Museum in Calgary, Alberta.
