Item Details
Description
Probably Kimmirut (Lake Harbour), Cribbage Board, ca. 1955-60, ivory and colour, 1.5 x 14.25 x 2.5 in,3.8 x 36.2 x 6.4 cm. Provenance: private collection, Toronto. ... For three examples of cribbage boards from Kimmirut that feature similarly carved ornamental tips, see Bernadette Driscoll, Baffin Island (WAG 1983), pp. 97 and 111. The lovely relief depiction of a walking caribou brings to mind the later sculpture of Osuitok Ipeelee. It is conceivable that this is an early work by this Cape Dorset artist, or perhaps by Osuitok’s brother Sheokjuk Oqutaq.--- CATEGORIES: Inuit, Eskimo
