Remarkable bark paintings featuring natural pigments applied to flattened eucalyptus bark panels captured the imagination of international collectors and curators. These beautiful works are now found in the finest art museums and private collections around the world. . Handcrafted using natural earth pigments on carefully prepared eucalyptus bark, this piece features intricate cross-hatching (rarrk) and bold geometric designs characteristic of Indigenous artists from Arnhem Land in the Northern Territory. Created by traditional generational techniques handed down for generations, the bark was softened over fire, flattened, and then painted with natural ochres and earth pigments. As is typical of genuine bark paintings, the surface may show slight natural bends or curves, which add to its authenticity and unique character.
