Wood statuette, 'Brown Beauty'
A magnificent steed comfortably grazes, its strength and beauty perceptible through its relaxed countenance. As Made Mudana sculpts the merumput ("grazing" in Balinese) horse, the shapely image seems to follow the natural flow of the sono wood's grain. Apprenticed by his father, Mudana excels at a craft present in his family for generations, and he proudly presents this magnificent equine specimen certain to charm any horse aficionado.
