Bunjil the Wedge-Tailed Eagle

$600

In the Dreamtime, Bunjil (God in the form of a wedge-tailed eagle) was a creator, an ancestral being who took shelter in a cave at a time of conflict among Kulin nations, when people argued and fought and neglected their families and the land. This angered the sea which began to to rise and cover the plains. The people approached Bunjil and asked him to help stop the sea rising. Bunjil agreed but only if people changed their ways, respected the laws and each other. He then walked out to the sea, raised his spear and ordered the water to stop rising.

More information

What is artwork stretching?
Your stretched and ready to hang painting will come complete with D-rings, hanging wire, and a small artwork label affixed to the back.

Why can’t I select unstretched canvas?
Some of our paintings are painted close to the edge of the canvas, and don’t have a border wide enough for standard stretching. These artworks will be ‘strip-lined’ with a quality cotton edging. As this is a boutique process, these paintings must be stretched by The Torch and are not available to be shipped as unstretched artworks.

Some paintings may also be unavailable unstretched because they have already been stretched for use in exhibitions.

How much will the artist receive?
100% of the artwork price, set before the stretching and delivery costs are added, is paid directly to the artist.
