either side of the granite chimney above the mantle are two hand carved
soapstone plaques of the Coat of Arms for Canada and the Northwest
Territories.
In the living room there is a floor to ceiling (20 ft. long) Inuit art mural from
Pagnirtung woven from Muskox wool, and a floor to ceiling hand crafted
wood carved mural.
The owner is also leaving in place numerous northern-framed paintings,
drawings, prints and carvings from northern artists such as Greame Shaw
and Bernard Will Brown.
