Lot Report

Provenance:

Private Collection, Hamilton, ON

Note:

The present original drawing is closely related to the following lot in the auction, Anguhadluq’s iconic Geese in September, dated to 1972. The subject of birds in flight appears in several of the artist’s exceptional images as late as the 1980s, and exhibits the artist’s sometimes unpredictable use of colour—a characteristic not always translated into Anguhadluq prints.
