    Description

    Presenting an original Canadian First Nation's marker drawing.
    I interpret the design to be a human (ancestor?) as it would appear on a panel on half the doorway to a longhouse.
    Red and Black are traditional colors used in Haida art, associated with the ancestors ("Looking at Indian Art of the Northwest Coast", Hilary Stewart).
    The matting is inscribed
    "Haida" - Name of the print / cultural origin of the representation.
    The penciled cursive of the artist's name is difficult to discern, looking to be "Chang Ona" or "One"
    "1997"
    and place - "Yukon W.H." (likely Whitehorse, Yukon)
    I haven't come up anything on the
    artist's name.
    Surface of the drawing itself is in great condition.
    The matting is gunked up and needs to be covered by another matte before framing.
    Back is scuffed bit, but would be covered once framed.
    10" x 8"
