Description
Drawing on horizontal rectangular sheet of ivory paper of three caribou and three wolves. The wolves appear to have surrounded the caribou and are in various howling poses. The caribou appear distressed and in various states of exhaustion with their tongues hanging out. The caribou at the bottom left is lying down, the one in the centre has his back legs splayed and his head tilted to the sky. The caribou to the left appears to be in the process of collapsing.
