The composition is structured in two tiers: the lower register shows a sled drawn by five dogs, with two hunters in a qamutiik transporting a kayak. Above, a second team is similarly arranged, with one hunter portaging a kayak and another walking beside. The repeated forms and mirrored groupings create a dynamic rhythm, underscoring the communal nature of the hunt.Provenance
