Bali Hindu Textile Framed 'Kamasan' Painting, Indonesia C. 1900

About the Item

This Antique Balinese Kamasan painting, rendered on handwoven cotton, beautifully captures the timeless elegance of classical Wayang-style storytelling. Featuring intricate scenes from Hindu epics and Javanese folklore, the artwork is executed in the traditional earthy palette of reds, ochres, and blacks, now softened with age-related fading and gentle wear that add depth and character to the piece. The textile has been expertly mounted on canvas to preserve its form and detail, then framed in sleek, natural teak wood—a modern contrast that enhances its rustic charm. The teak frame not only complements the organic tones of the painting but also offers a contemporary presentation, making this a stunning statement piece for both traditional and modern interiors. A unique blend of cultural heritage and minimalist refinement, this artwork embodies the enduring spirit of Balinese craftsmanship.
