Old and weathered Gope board, Wapo Creek (NJS)

Wapo Creek is on the west of the Purari Delta and flows into the Era River. This example features a spirit face above a stacked series of vee-shaped motifs, old and weathered pigments, some pigment loss. The board upon which this gope is carved is exceptionally thin and even and is probably the side of an old canoe. Size: 85 x 19 cm. Ref: Michael Hamson, Red Eye of the Sun, p 40l, plate 7. Size 85 x 18 cm /33 ½ x 7 inches.
