Please note there are two cuts on the edge of the canvas. This is not on the painting and simply on the edge used to stretch the canvas. 

"There were two sisters who married two brothers, and they all lived together. One day, the women wandered off so far that they forgot about their husbands. Back at the camp, the brothers began to wonder, "Where are our wives?" and decided to go in search of them. One brother asked, "What should we become to look for them?" and the other replied, "Why don’t we turn into Rainbow Serpents?" So, they traveled through the sky, searching for their wives from above.

Eventually, they spotted the sisters hunting for carpet snakes and placed something in the hole where the women were digging. The women found it and moved to dig another hole, where again, the men had left something behind. This is how the brothers lured the women back to Piltati, where they transformed the sisters into Wanampi, swallowed them, and kept them in their throats. All four now live together in the waterhole and remain there to this day."
