Description

Contents: "A framed watercolour depicting a kangaroo drive, probably preliminary to their corralling and culling. It shows a large kangaroo population surrounded by riders in the foreground but also suggested around the full perimeter of a bush clearing. Includes one woman rider wearing riding habit.
The drawing records the beginning of the charge of riders, some groups of kangaroos having not yet fled from their pursuers."
