Summary

Basedow photographed this group of people at Mount Currie, to the north-west of the Olgas (Kuta Tjuta), in 1926. On this trip Basedow's party were travelling by camel. The two groups camped near one another and the next day Basedow took this photograph. Two signs indicate that it was probably taken at the Aboriginal camp: the remains of a fire, and the row of bushes between the men and women, which appears to be a (constructed) windbreak.
