Kuehl, Gerald (Illust.) - Portraits of the North

Winnipeg, Manitoba, Les Éditions des Plaines Book Publishers & VIDACOM, 2018. First Edition. Softcover. pp. 236. Square 4to. Pictorial covers. Richly illustrated with full-page portrait illustration, printed on recto, accompanied with a biography printed on versos. Bright, clean, and unmarked. Appears unread; as new. This gorgeous book offers an incomparable glimpse into the experiences and history of more than one hundred First Nations and Métis elders from Canada’s North —“the last generation born on the land.” These stunning graphite pencil portraits are rendered with love, respect, and painstaking detail, along with gripping intimate profiles assembled from oral accounts and anecdotes. Their poignant facial features, lines, and creases, weathered by the harsh outdoors and a lifetime of challenges, are like badges of their remarkable achievements, sustained resolve, inspired patience, and deep-set defiance to the hardships their people have endured for generations. The masterful realism of Kuehl’s work helps uncover the tales of these seasoned individuals—their many triumphs and trials revealing in turn a greater portrait of life in the communities of Northern Canada, a compelling homage, and an enduring historical legacy. The portraits capture images of Cree, Ojibway, Oji-Cree, Dene and Metis peoples." .
