Kamasan, Bali, Laksmana, flag (Kober), c1920s, pigment on European cotton cloth, 67 x 65 cm. Other Notes: rectangular flags (kober) are produced in pairs with the same image on both sides, so a pair of flags consists of four pieces of painted cloth. They usually feature a pair of opposed but complementary figures, expressing duality or balanced opposition. These two works (Lots 191 and 192) feature the figures of Laksmana and a demon general from the Ramayana. Flags are displayed by inserting a bamboo pole along the seam in the side of the cloth
