_More rarely encountered than portraits of mothers and children, but no less important a relationship, the bond between fathers and their children is seldom portrayed by Inuit artists. When they do depict fathers and children though, the artists show off relationships based on action and learning every bit as much as playing, with fathers teaching their children to hunt and collect eggs, and carrying them home safely when they get too tired. Enjoy seven works that show off paternal love
