TORADJA, Indonesia. Very old heavy wooden shutter eroded by the weather. A very beautiful stylization of buffalo head linked to funeral rituals is carved in low relief. Note the offset of the muffle which overhangs the lower part of the frame which increases the realism of the symbol. Height: 61 cm - Width: 44 cm - Collection Vincent, Brunoy.
