Australia's Greatest Rock Art

Bathurst, E.J. Brill / Robert Brown & Associates (Aust) Pty. Ltd., 1988.

Oblong folio, 312 pages with a full-page map, numerous small location maps, and approximately 340 colour plates.

Cloth lettered in gilt on the spine and front cover, and decorated in blind on the front cover; top edge a little foxed; bottom edge slightly marked; first leaf and last three leaves slightly foxed; an excellent copy with the dustwrapper lightly scuffed and a little unevenly sunned.

An important survey of Aboriginal rock art; 'One hundred individual sections cover the rock art of not only every Australian state and territory but also every major rock art region and art style. Many art panels in the 339 colour plates have never been published'. This was the first major publication by Walsh, who went on to produce two substantial studies of the Bradshaw rock art of North-West Australia in 1994 and 2000.
