<p>[QUOTE="Mark London, post: 2362172, member: 346"]The title of the image is "Eskimo Girl Juggling" by Pauta Saila which was released as part of the 1966 Cape Dorset annual graphics collection. It is a stonecut produced in an edition of 50 copies. The proper measurements should be in the range of 24" tall x 33" wide. It should be pointed out that the English handwriting along the bottom of the Cape Dorset prints of the era (including the artists' name" were not done by the artists but rather an employee of the Cape Dorset Co-op. The artists of the day used chops (similar to Japanese printmakers) instead of signatures. There are three separate chops on the worthpoint print, Pauta Saila, Eegyvudluk Pootoogook (the person who cut the stone), and the red chop of the Cape Dorset print shop.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
