About the Item
A well carved wooden portrait bust of an elderly man carved by a Balinese artist around the mid 20th century. The bust is carved from a single piece if wood and is well carved with good detail portraying the man wearing a traditional headdress. Carved in a local wood the bust has a wonderful dark aged patina. The base has a hand chip carved finish and the bust is typically not marked.
Originating from Bali, Indonesia many of these carvings were popular with tourists during the early to mid 20th century as Bali became a destination with tourists. With this came a demand for a wide range of local art and sculpture with a large number of local artisans turning their hands to carving busts which varied in quality and detail. They make wonderful display pieces and this is a good example of its type.
