AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Batak-geestfiguur die is afgeleid van zijn inspiratie in de hindoeïstische iconografie. Dit soort beelden werd in Indonesië gebruikt om de voorouders te eren en kracht en bescherming van hen te verkrijgen. Het beeld heeft decennia buiten gestaan en is in een ver geerodeerde staat, afgezien van oudheid die dit uitstraalt is het tevens een abstract object hierdoor geworden!

Het wordt geleverd met een op maat gemaakte ijzeren standaard waarop het beeld een hoogte van ca. 26 cm bereikt.
