By 1960 Pitseolak had already developed a level of confidence in her drawing, evident in this depiction of an Inuit woman with facial tattoos. She wears an amauti, a woman’s parka with an extended hood in which a young child can be carried, nestled against its mother’s back. With fluid lines, the artist conveys the bulky curves of the amauti as well as details—the complex ties across the front, the elaborate braided hairstyle, and the intricate facial tattoos that mark the woman’s maturity, accomplishments, and place in Inuit society.
