Bio

Albert Namatjira was born and grew up on the banks of the Finke River, in the Lutheran mission at Hermannsburg west of Alice Springs. He was introduced to the Western style of painting in the early 1930s by visiting artists Rex Battarbee and John Gardner. In response to increasing tourist numbers after the extension of the railway to Alice Springs in 1929, the Arrernte people at Hermannsburg were encouraged to make a range of souvenirs for visitors. Between the 1930s and 1950s they sold everything from needlework and religious decorative items to artefacts including spear throwers, boomerangs, and spears. Medium watercolour over pencil on hardwood, spinifex resin, sinew.
