Lot Report

Provenance:

Inuit Gallery of Vancouver
Private Collection, CA, U.S.A.

Note:

Itee’s works are meticulous and often understated. Here, he has worked in coloured pencil to create a stunning Northern skyscape that is anything but subtle. He has recreated from a moment in time a meditative atmosphere, showing the kayaker taking to the calm waters at sunset.
