Beschreibung:

Inuit. An Inuit carved sperm whale tooth by Johannes Kreutzmann (1862-1940), carved as man holding a drum, signed 'J.K.' on the inner left foot, 15cm long (Qty: 1) Johannes Kreutzmann (1862-1940) was born in the trading station Kangaamiut on a small island northwest of Maniitsoq/Sukkertoppen. His Danish grandfather, Ernst Kretzmer moved there in 1823 and was the manager of the trading station to his death in 1853. Kreutzmann is better known for his figures carved in wood and the use of a sperm whale tooth for his craft is highly unusual.
