content: Soapstone carving of a man in a parka by Pauloosie Arnakak, of Kangiqtugaapik. The piece was carved around 1970, and purchased from the Canadian Handicrafts Guild in Toronto by Annette Barrash. A flexible brown skin-like material was coiled in the left hand but has broken off, and the pieces are included with the object [it is intact on photos from the 2016 appraisal in the accession file]. There is a hole in the right hand where a spear may have been.
