- Portrait of a Balinese Beauty by Theo Meier in Original FrameLocated in Amsterdam, NLTheo Meier (1908-1982) “A Balinese woman with offerings” Signed, dated '36 and annotated Mankok (the name of the sitter) lower left Sanguine on paper, measures: 57 x 41.5 cm In a handmade and hand painted frame with address: Max Kno¨ll, Herberggasse 4/1, Basel.

In Bali, he settled and found inspiration and friendship with other artists including Walter Spies...Category
