Lot description

A signed and numbered 97/125 stone lithograph entitled "Butchering at Gambell" by Alaska artist Rie Munoz (1921-2015). The c.1974 piece, in shades of black, depicts an entire village having descended upon its prized whale catch, the men measuring and removing sections of blubber, the women carefully dividing the tapsieiaaq to be shared among the last two boats to arrive. Titled, numbered, and signed by the artist within the bottom margin; it has a few small spots of discoloration, as photographed. This piece is shrink-wrapped on board and measures approximately 15" x 22".
