About the Item

A wonderful, unique, and very engaging original indigenous Australian Aboriginal bark painting featuring an image of a freshwater crocodile (these spirit creatures represent strength, survival, and deep ties to water and also serve as totems, ancestors, and important figures in many Dreaming stories). The painting is made with natural earth pigments which are hand painted on natural eucalyptus wood bark. The work is signed/notated on the verso with what also appears to be a collection/museum accession number. We believe this work is by Aboriginal Australian artist Bob Burruwal (1952-2021) of the Rembarrnga (also spelled Rembarunga) people in southwestern Arnhem Land. His wife Lena Yarinkura was also a renowned artist. Burruwal's work can be found in a number of private collections and museums such as the Museum of Contemporary Art (MCA), Australia, the National Gallery of Victoria, Australia, and the Art Gallery of South Australia among others. A relatively large, striking, original work. Would be a great addition to any Australian Aboriginal or tribal art/artifacts collection or make for an eye-catching stand-alone accent artwork in about any setting. Approximate dimensions: 33" high, 18" wide, 1.5" deep
