About the Item

This antique wooden panel from the island of Madura, Java is a striking example of regional decorative craftsmanship, richly adorned with polychrome-painted details. The composition is organized into horizontal registers, with a central panel featuring an ornate floral scroll motif, highlighted by warm ochre and gold tones against a deep, muted ground. Above and below, the panel is embellished with a stylized mountainscape, rendered in soft, earthy hues and interspersed with trees and landscape elements, evoking a serene, folkloric view of the natural world. Originally, panels of this type formed part of the interior architectural detailing of traditional Madurese houses, where they were used to decorate walls or structural elements and convey both aesthetic refinement and cultural symbolism. The surface displays age-related fading, wear, and a well-developed wood patina, all consistent with its age and adding to its authentic character and visual depth. Traces of use and weathering enhance the panel’s historic presence, making it both a decorative object and a tangible piece of Madurese cultural heritage. Ideal as a wall-mounted artwork or architectural accent, this panel offers a rare blend of floral ornamentation and landscape imagery, showcasing the enduring aesthetic traditions of Madura.
