Drawing; graphite and watercolour, from a collection of nineteen Thomas Bock portraits of Tasmanian Aboriginal people, held by the British Museum. It depicts a Tasmanian Aboriginal woman wearing necklaces and a skin garment. She also has scarification on her upper left arm. Until 2017, it was thought this image depicted Trukanini (Truganini) but is now believed to be of Wutapuwitja (Wortabowidgee), see curatorial comments.
