stiff wraps. 1st Edition. Oblong 4to, stiff illustrated wraps, colour and b&w illus (including many full-page colour plates, map, references, list of artworks, illus endpapers, pp 216. Near fine condition. A lavishly illustrated study of the life of Joseph Nangan (?Butcher? Joe) (1900?-1989), Aboriginal lawman and artist, born in Yawuru country at Kanen (Fishermens Bend), near Broome. Nangan spent his life acquiring the ritual knowledge and lore, not only of his own Nyikina and Walmajarri forbears but also that pertaining to the lands of his neighbours. Nangan believed that he could, through his art; present his world to a wider audience: he deftly depicted the artefacts, legends and history of his country. The legends that Nangan relates and illustrates provide a traditional explanation on how his world came to be. Nangan also records the often-brutal history of the frontier experience and the clash of cultures as Europeans began to encroach on Aboriginal lands. Possibly one of the most prolific of Australia's Indigenous artists Nangan left a record unparalleled of a world at the cusp.
