Condition report: Not mounted on stretcher This dream is one of the most important for the Kunga Kutjara. At the time of the Dreaming, two young women travelled through the Walpiri Luritja region, gathering food from the bush, setting up camp and cooking the vegetables they gathered in the evening. They were pursued by an old Tjakamarra man who was intent on seducing them. Eunice painted this dream in different ways and remains the supreme authority on the illustration of this story. This painting is of the highest quality.
