The UK government has stepped in to place an export bar on two paintings by 18th-century artist George Stubbs.
One of the paintings depicts a dingo, and the other a kangaroo. They are credited with being the first introduction the British people had to these animals.
Stubbs had seen neither a dingo nor a kangaroo in the flesh. He worked from the spoken accounts of those who had, as well as a preserved kangaroo skin which he inflated.
Considering what he was working from, I think the kanga is remarkable.
