Edwin was born in the late 1910's at Hermannsburg in the Central Australian desert. He began painting in the 1940's after the success of Albert Namatjira's exhibitions. Edwin was one of the first founders of the Hermannsburg School.
This landscape by Edwin reflects the colour and formation of the many ranges, hills, gorges and flora that are found in his country, Ntaria (Hermannsburg), West of Alice Springs in Central Australia. This country truly has the blue and purple colours of the ranges in the distance, the rich colour in the sand and an amazing contrast when the plentiful flora is in bloom.
