Inuit Art Stonecut or Lithograph Print of Mother Figures

This artwork is a framed print, likely a stonecut or stencil lithograph, evocative of the mid-to-late 20th-century West Baffin Eskimo Co-operative or Cape Dorset style. It depicts three stylized figures, likely maternal in nature, wearing traditional Inuit 'amautis' (parkas) in a striking white silhouette against a dark, textured background composed of mottled grays and blacks. Each figure carries a small child or infant nestled within their hood. The subjects feature deep brown skin tones, rendered with a rich, earthy pigment that suggests the use of organic or stone-based inks. Significant attention is paid to the cultural patterns on the garments, showing geometric decorative bands at the waist and shoulders. The figures are grounded on a base of dark brown and black tones, with a smaller secondary animal figure or child visible at the bottom right. The print exhibits a soft, fibrous paper texture consistent with hand-pressed techniques. It is professionally matted with an off-white border and housed in a dark wooden frame. While signatures and edition numbers (likely written in pencil) are visible in the lower margin, their illegibility in the provided image prevents specific artist attribution, though the style bears a strong resemblance to established masters like Kenojuak Ashevak or Pitseolak Ashoona. The piece appears to be in good vintage condition with no visible foxing, tearing, or moisture damage, showing only minor light-aging to the mat board.
