Note:

Anguhadluq did not abide by any rules of perspective or paper orientation. In this drawing he has created a colourful hunting scene from both an aerial and forward facing viewpoint. Turning the paper as he worked, Anguhadluq placed his syllabic signature and disc number likely where he completed his drawing or where there was space.
