Painted, wooden carving or figurine of a Sámi man in a canoe-like boat. The figurine as a whole is brown and much of the paint is worn, though there still remain thin lines of yellow and red on the man's jacket and along the rim of the boat. There are traces of paint on the man's Four Winds hat, a traditional Sámi hat.Acquisition
