For your consideration is a signed, framed sketch titled "Caribou Skin" by Alaskan Eskimo artist George Aligupuk (1911-2001 Alaska). This ink sketch shows an animal being harvested by an Eskimo at an Alaskan waterfront. George Aden Ahgupuk, whose Native name was Twok meaning "man", was born on October 8, 1911 in the Inupiat Native village of Shishmaref, Alaska, His artwork depicted scenes of village life, seal and walrus hunting, polar bear hunting, whale hunting, and Alaska scenery and wildlife. As a traditional Eskimo, he used all of the resources available to him. He not only drew on hides and paper, but also on fish skins, seal skins, tree mushrooms, plywood, ceramic tile, etc. Basically, anything that had a surface that would hold paint could wind up in his painting room. The art shows in great condition and the frame shows signs of wear. There is an artist signature in the bottom right corner, and the title of the work in the lower left. The visible art measures approximately 4x9.75" and the frame measures 8.5x13.75"
