CreatorStan BrumbyTitleAll Around AustraliaMediumAcrylic on canvasDimensions90cm x 89cmArtist StatementWell, you know - long time ago, even before whiteman came here, some people from this place here, my country around Lamboo, well they walked a long way. I reckon probably all around Australia. They walked and walked looking for a better place. Well, some of them got killed you know. The others, well two blokes anyway, they came back here. They came back in summer like I've painted this place, with country looking all red in hot sun. You'd think they might'a found a better place when they bin [sic] travelling. But they said this was home country, best place for them. They should never have left, that mob now. That was long time ago and those spirit blokes still living in this country here.Accession Number001.2019Access AdviceFor research purposes only.
