A large curved Dall sheep (Ovis dalli dalli) ram's horn, a sub-species of sheep indigenous to central and northern Alaska. The sheep inhabit the most rugged alpine areas, thriving on the wind-swept exposed cliffs and peaks of mountains, and this hollowed out horn depicts such a ram, perched upon the side of a steep mountain range nestled along the outer curve. Signed lower right by Alaska artist Wayne Woods, the horn is mounted on an oval-shaped and richly stained wooden base. Measures approximately 9.5" x 4" x 14" tall.
