This work is accompanied by a certificate of authenticity from Warlayirti Artists that states:
‘Eubena has painted some country far to the south of her traditional country, which is along the middle stretches of the Canning Stock Route. This country depicted here is Partjalu, where three ancestral sisters of the Napaltjarri skin group camped. There are now three rockholes here, while the remainder of the painting shows the tali, or sand dunes which dominate the landscape of the area.’
