Behind the Bit


Sidney Nolan, Australian painter: The Slip

I can't say I "like" this painting, but it intrigues me. The painter witnessed a horse falling. The gully was exceedingly rough and precipitous. So much so that on one occasion as we were ascending in single file one of the packhorses lost its footing and fell.
