This stunning photograph captures the essence of Australia's outback with its rich ochre colours and the iconic silhouette of a eucalyptus tree casting its shadow. Ochre pigments, like those seen in this image, have played a significant role in Australia's Indigenous culture and history. The National Museum of Australia holds a vast collection of ochre samples from archaeological sites across the country, including the Western Desert, Kimberley, and Arnhem Land regions.
