Maker: Thomas Mitchell
Date: 1875-76
Note: The National Maritime Museum doesn't use the terms 'Eskimo' or 'Esquimaux'. Arctic indigenous people who share the same territory, dialect and customs use the word 'Inuit', meaning 'people', to describe themselves.
However, when the Flickr community tags a picture with 'Eskimo' we allow the tag to remain, so the photographs are discoverable by others.
