For the story about Australian outlaw Ned Kelly (1855-1890) it is best to turn to Wikipedia (www.wikipedia.org).
This print is an interpretation of the gunbattle between the Kelly gang and four policemen: "In this print Ned is seen emerging from the dark side of the trunk of a Stringybark tree, stepping into the light that would bring him infamy. No other police force in Australia has ever suffered three deaths in a day."
