Lot description - from the online catalogue*
Provenance:
langfordgallery.com, Toronto
Notes:
This is one of Mosesie Kolola’s finest works. He created works ranging from etched tusks, to multiple component camp scenes, to figural works. This work has little in common with the elaborate Inuit Camp Scene sold at Waddington’s for $5000 in the fall of 2012, except perhaps the importance that they share.
With the confidence of a resourceful provider, this serene-faced woman strolls back to her camp with fresh char in hand.
