Rock Paintings of Aboriginal Australia

Australia’s world-famous Aboriginal rock art can be found all over the country from Tasmania to the Kimberley. The paintings depict everyday events such as hunting and corroborees, as well as myths and legends. Godden’s text explains the paintings and their stories, while Malnic’s photographs capture their mystery and beauty.
