Provenance:

Private collection, Quebec

Note:

Little information is readily available about Anautaq Kiatainaq, although the quality of carving in the present sculpture is suggestive of a large output by the artist. Small in scale, the sculpture is rich in detail. Fine attention has been paid to the women’s loop of hair, and to the depiction of the frame used for stretching the hide.
