Rare Vintage Eddy Cobiness "Dall Sheep" Hand-Pulled Serigraph

Rare Vintage Eddy Cobiness "Dall Sheep" Hand-Pulled Serigraph (Silkscreen) – Published by Marcel Creations An exceptional and highly collectible vintage hand-pulled serigraph (silkscreen print) titled "Dall Sheep" by the foundational Canadian Indigenous artist Eddy Cobiness (1933–1996). This piece showcases Cobiness's celebrated mastery of the Woodland School style, utilizing minimalist, sweeping ink work and smooth organic forms to capture the fluid motion and spiritual silhouette of two thinhorn Dall sheep resting against a stylized mountain ridge. Macro-examination verifies this as a premium, studio-pulled serigraph rather than an offset lithograph or commercial print. The ink sits prominently with clean, layered depth on heavy-weight, textured art paper, demonstrating absolute saturation free from mechanical halftone printer dots. The reverse features its original, complete historical documentation, including the artist biography sheet officially attributed to the prominent mid-century publisher Marcel Creations (Vancouver, B.C.). The piece remains beautifully preserved in its original custom presentation, completed with professional dual-matting and a gold-toned metal gallery frame from "Boutique Framed Prints" (Yonge St., Toronto).
