Need info about Cape Dorset artist

By NUNATSIAQ NEWS

I have a print by Pitseolak Ashoona. I found it at an estate sale. It looks like the print is 10 by 11 1/2 inches on art paper of some sort. The numbers 20691 are on the back of the print. The title is “Bird Stealing Fish.” I loved it from the moment I saw it.

I am very curious about it. So on the chance of finding something about it, I entered the artist name in the Google Internet search and up comes information about this marvelous lady artist. I did find out that the print was done in 1967, but that’s about all.

Can any of you give me any information about what I have? It had been professionally framed but was not a particularly good job. On the paper covering the back of the print was a sticker with her name in English. I took this back paper off to see the back of the print and that’s where the numbers 20691 are. I intend to have it reframed better.

I would really appreciate any information any of you can give me about it.
