  • Mark Tungilik Inuit Eskimo Carved Ivory Angel
    Jul. 11, 2026

    Mark Tungilik Inuit Eskimo Carved Ivory Angel

    Est: $1,500 - $2,000

    Repulse Bay. 3 1/4" by 3" by 2 5/8". Native made prior to 1972. This item cannot be shipped to Oregon, California, Hawaii, New York, New Jersey, Internationally, or any other state that prohibits. Mark Tungilik 1913 Kitikmeot Region of Nunavut, Canada - 1986 Repulse Bay, Nunavut. Known for: Inuit sculpture and marine ivory carving. An important early modern Inuit sculptor and carver, Mark Tungilik was born in the Kitikmeot region of what is now Nunavut, Canada and died in Repulse Bay, Nunavut, where he had lived since about 1948. His carvings have been included in many landmark exhibitions, his life is discussed in virtually every comprehensive Inuit Art history book, and his works are in the permanent collections of several major museums such as the National Gallery of Canada (Ottawa), the Canadian Museum of Civilization (Gatineau, Quebec) and The Metropolitan Museum of Art (New York). Tungilik was famous for his mixed medium 'micro miniature' marine ivory (walrus tusk or whale teeth) carvings composed with additional things like stone, whalebone, baleen and sinew. These were frequently arranged in tableaus depicting Christian images (e.g. Christ, Priests and Angels); traditional Inuit spiritual images (e.g. shamans and transformation); syncretistic images (combining religious beliefs); Inuit genre (e.g. hunting, fishing, dog teams, ceremonies and family); legend; mythology; and arctic animals (e.g. musk-ox, bear, caribou, seal and birds). As with most Inuit carvers of his era Tungilik was self taught; he began carving when he was a teenager (c.1930) to earn the cash needed to survive in an increasingly non-nomadic society. In 1939 Christian missionaries converted him to Catholicism and encouraged him to carve religious figures. One of which was presented to Pope Pius XII in 1948. However, Tungilik still continued to also carve animals as well as Inuit genre, secular, mythological and Inuit spiritual subjects.

Family of Owls is a classic example of Tungilik’s stumpy, smooth style. The uniform, minimal detail of the carving reinforces the familial representation with its roundness, the eyes and beak the only distinguishing factor between the three owls. The owls’ unified bodies render a protective, nurturing role, as the inset eyes stare outwards, captivating the viewer. Estimate: $2,500—3,500
