EDITORS COMMENTS
In this black and white lithograph, titled "A Waddy Fight" we are transported back to the 19th century Australian outback. The image, taken from Howard Willoughby's renowned collection of Australian Pictures, captures a moment of intense tribal custom and competition among indigenous people. The scene unfolds with a group of aboriginal men engaged in a spirited waddy fight. With boomerangs in hand and shields for protection, these warriors showcase their strength and skill as they engage in this traditional sport. Their muscular bodies are adorned with grass skirts that sway with each powerful gesture. The print beautifully encapsulates the essence of Aboriginal culture - its rich heritage, customs, and rituals passed down through generations. It serves as a testament to the resilience and spirit of these indigenous people who have inhabited Australia for thousands of years. Published by the Religious Tract Society in London in 1886, this historical piece offers us a glimpse into an era long gone but not forgotten. Preserved within private collections like Ken Welsh's, it continues to inspire awe and curiosity about Australia's diverse cultural tapestry. As we admire this remarkable artwork captured by an unknown English artist from the 19th century, let us appreciate the significance behind every stroke - celebrating both the beauty of human expression through art and the importance of preserving our collective history for future generations to cherish.
