Dear Tony,

Thank you for your request. this is a drawing on reindeer skin with the measurements 10 x 14 inches. It was made by the Alaskan artist George Ahgupuk (1911-2001) and it depicts a scene from the everyday life of the Inupiat Eskimo. A man with his dog is watching a herd of caribous.
An estimation would be from 150 to 300 USD.

With best regards,
