Description
A watercolour of an Indigenous style mask likely from the Tlingit people as inferred from the artist's inscription. The mask has human features with large open eyes and a closed mouth in a slight smile, a narrow nose and a pointed chin. The image is done so that it is a close up, with the edges of the mask spilling off the page. The mask is done in rough blue, grey and black brushstrokes. The corners not taken up by the mask are grey-blue.
