• Notes:
  This painting is sold with a Waringarri Aboriginal Arts certificate which reads: "This painting shows Bow River Bridge 30 kilometres north of Turkey Creek. We see the bitumen road cross the river, the yellow sand and the bridge pylons with the shadow of water behind them. For most of the year the Bow River is a sandy bed with a few water holes. When the wet season comes it is a raging torrent which eventually flows into the Ord River. The bridge is a very high concrete structure which looks in the dry time as though it could not possibly be needed but is really essential in the wet."
