Scope & content
* Photograph is of an Inuit woman in [typical] traditional dress, with a child in a sack over her shoulder. Shown in 3/4 length portrait style. The woman's hood is thrust forward to show that her clothing is fur-lined. She has a 'V' of fringe on her front, pointing toward her face. Very little is seen of the child, however what can been seen suggests that he is not dressed for the outdoors as the woman is. * All background has been eliminated to further emphasize the subject matter.
