Lot description - from the online catalogue*
Dorothy Francis was fascinated by the life-style of Canada's indigenous people since her early childhood days spent near Duck Lake in northern Saskatchewan, where her father operated the general store. Depicting Canada's aboriginal peoples, particularly the Inuit of the far north, developed into a life-long passion for Francis, resulting in more than 500 images rendered in acrylic, pastel, watercolour and oil. Francis has exhibited in many major galleries in Canada and the US and her work can be found in many collections, including the Smithsonian Institute.
Most realised prices include the Buyer's Premium of 18-25%, but not the HST/GST Tax.
