ARCTIC OR SUBARCTIC REGION YUP'IK OR INUIT (ESKIMO) MASK. Native American mask that is likely from the Arctic or Subarctic region, such as Yup'ik or Inuit (Eskimo), or possibly another northern group like the Athabascan. The mask has an elongated, narrow, and somewhat stylized human face. This aesthetic is often found in the masks of the Yup'ik people of Alaska, though it is simpler and less adorned than typical Yup'ik ceremonial masks (which are usually complex, often with surrounding hoops and many appendages). The mask is made of a natural fible or a creamy color animal skin. It is framed by light-colored fur or animal hide. Estimate $100-150
