Westcoast Sunset - Consignment #15/80

Edition Date: 1982 Artist: Roy Henry Vickers Medium: Serigraph Image Size: 29.5" x 21.5" Edition Size: 80 Original Prints Story I had the occasion to paddle a canoe from Prince Rupert to Kitkatla one Summer, following a route that was used by my ancestors many times. I left the harbour at the wrong time and had to face adverse tides at the mouth of the Skeena River and down the channel to the village. I wished at the time that I could have learned something of the seamanship of my ancestors prior to the voyage. In time, about seventeen hours, my friend and I finally arrived at the village just at sunset. It was this memory that inspired Westcoast Sunset.
