Henry Evaluardjuk, Fox hunter with dog
14 x 7 1/4 x 7 in.
Ex coll. Peter Murdoch, presented to him in appreciation of his work as Superintendent of the Frobisher Bay Rehabilitation Centre. Murdoch had hired Henry Evaluardjuk to supervise the arts program at the Rehabilitation Centre.
This is a major work by Henry. The hunter is imposing, but the dog's excitement is palpable, and the dead fox hanging down the hunter's back can only be described as animated. Both animals prefigure Henry's later masterful carvings of bears and other wildlife. SOLD
