Additional Information: An Inuit reclaimed whale bone contemporary carving, likely made of whale bone, depicting a figure wearing that appears to be a thick hooded shirt. The carving has a smooth, yet porous texture with a pale white face with dark eyes, its head tilted to the side and its arms outstretched to its sides and legs are in a wide stance. One can see even more porous texture of the bone towards the bottom of the carving. The artists signature is written on the bottom, but we are unable to make out the name.
