Lot Report

Provenance:

Gallery Phillip, Toronto, ON;
Private collection, Hamilton, ON

Note:

Interested in architecture, technology, and landscape, Pudlo's drawings are alive with whimsy and curiosity as in this image of that iconic delivery vehicle and focal point of anticipation in the North: the supply plane. The plane is shown here greeted—and apparently also piloted—by Pudlo’s amautik-clad fellows.
