Davidialuk Alashua Amittu, Waiting for Canada Geese, 43/50, 1977
Stonecut, 12 x 14 in. (30.5 x 35.6 cm)
Many of Davidialuk's prints are based on legends, but this print is derived from daily life. A hunter waits in a blind for a flock of geese to land, hoping to bag his dinner. Although relatively small in size, the geese are beautifully detailed. A legend in Inuktituk along the bottom of the image describes the scene.
