Content Summary:

Colour print (exhibition print). Caption from card with the item, which reads in full: Tony Bangalang at Mandjarwulbindji with his painting of Adjumarllarl, the dingo, who created this waterfall. "This painting is about that dingo dog Adjumarllarl. He travelled through this country long time ago with the female dog Walbulbul. She only had three legs. They came to this place looking for water, but the female dog couldn't climb the cliff, so Adjumarllarl left her and climbed the cliff, dug into the rock and made the waterfall. When he returned the female dingo had turned into tha tthree-legged rock near here. I paint this story, and explain it to my son this place of my 'Dreaming' so he will tell his children, keep our 'Dreaming' alive for ever." - Tony Bangalang
