EDITORS COMMENTS
This hand-colored steel engraving, created by W.H. Lizars after an illustration by Charles Hamilton Smith, showcases the traditional attire and daily life of an Inuit man from Prince Regent Inlet in Baffin Bay and an Inuit woman from Jacobs Bight in Uummannaq Fjord. The Esquimaux, or Inuit, people are renowned for their remarkable adaptation to the harsh Arctic climate. The Inuit man, dressed in a thick sealskin parka, wears a fur-trimmed bandana around his neck, protecting him from the cold. His hands are adorned with intricate tattoos, a common practice among Inuit men of that era. He holds a harpoon, a crucial tool for hunting seals, which was a primary source of food and essential materials for the Inuit community. The Inuit woman, wearing a similar sealskin parka, wears her long, dark hair in braids and also dons a bandana. She carries a small bundle on her back, likely containing essential supplies for her family. The woman's hands are bare, revealing the intricate designs of her finger tattoos. The natural beauty of the Arctic landscape is captured in the background, with the icy waters of Baffin Bay and Uummannaq Fjord reflecting the clear blue sky. The engraving, created in 1848, offers a glimpse into the lives of these remarkable people and their deep connection to their environment.
