This artwork on paper, in the Balinese Batuan style, seems to depict a Hindu drama and spectators. It probably comes from Bali in the pre-war years. The artist’s signature is hard to make out, but perhaps it is Djawi. Measures about 10.75 inches wide by 14.5 inches tall, and is taped to matting measuring 14 x 19. It is not framed.

Extremely unusual and spectacularly wonderful original 1955 folk art painting depicting two men with horses heads dancing. This painting measures 28″ by 22″ and is painted on an embossed pattern paperboard. It is entitled below: HINDUS MYTHS TWIN ASHVINS PHYSICIANS GODS. It is signed lower right: Norman A Beyerlin February 28 1955 Anderson, Indiana. So I would call this an American folk art rendition of Hindu mythology. The two figures are twin brothers, Ashwini or Ashvin physicians. The two figures are doctors to the Gods in Hindu mythology. With any subject ever in the history of world painting! The painting is in good condition but does have a few small areas of damage and some light spotting and discoloration. None of the damage is enough to detract much from this work. I bought this piece probably 20 years ago out here in the Northwest US with no idea how it arrived here. I put this trim vintage frame around it but this wild thing could be framed all kinds of glorious ways. Questions always welcome and thanks for looking. The item “Original 1955 PAINTING FOLK ART 2 MEN HORSES DANCING PHYSICIANS HINDU MYTHOLOGY” is in sale since Monday, August 28, 2017. This item is in the category “Art\Paintings”. The seller is “mkvanvig1″ and is located in Portland, Oregon. This item can be shipped worldwide.
