Hand-Carved Spotted Stallion
Physical Description:

A hand-carved wood sculpture, locally referred to as a Jaran, that embodies a classic 1980s Balinese export design meticulously shaped through the Ukir technique. The figure is captured in a dynamic downward pose atop a minimalist green base, featuring a unique surface treatment of dense, hand-painted Macan Tutul (leopard) spots. Rendered in a soft pastel color palette of cream and rich mahogany, the piece showcases a playful folk-art aesthetic characteristic of that era, blending smooth anatomical contours with a rhythmic, high-contrast pattern that highlights the enduring whimsy and versatility of traditional Balinese woodcraft
