• Notes:
  This painting is accompanied by a certificate of authenticity from Papunya Tula Artists that states: ‘This painting depicts body paint designs associated with the site of Walungurru or Kintore. In ancestral times angintaka (perentie) came to this site from the west. Two women tracked the ngintaka to Kintore and eventually found it. When the ngintaka died, it turned to stone and became the mountain, a very prominent landmark next to the Kintore community. This site is associated with the Tingari song cycle.’
