Description
NATSIVAAR (1919-1962) KINNGAIT (CAPE DORSET)
Mother and Son, 1961 #59
Printmaker: IYOLA KINGWATSIAK (1933-2000) KINNGAIT (CAPE DORSET)
stonecut, 23 x 29 in (58.4 x 73.7 cm)
22/50
PROVENANCE
Private Collection, Toronto.
Natsivaar passed away only two years after the release of the inaugural Kinngait Print Collection. As a result of her untimely death, only two of her graphic works were released, Angels in the Moon (1960 #41) and the present Mother and Son. The former shows the the influence of Christian subject matter whereas the latter and present print, Mother and Son, is rooted in a more traditional, communal theme. In the present work, we see the spirited chase of a mother, dressed in a long tailed amautiq and holding an ulu, after her young child. She is followed closely by a lively young pup, who nips playfully at her amaut.
