Description
Lance Bennett's accompanying notes read in part:
"Namarnde is a general term for the various spirits which inhabit the vast rocky Arnhem Lane plateau, a region which the Aborigines call 'the stone country'… The artist has shown here a Namarnde spirit with his two wives. He is making love to his younger wife while the older wife waits."
