dc.descriptionThis painting was produced on the island of Bali in Indonesia as an astrological calendar (pelelintangan). Because of the complexity of the calendrical systems in Bali, this calendar would have been used by a specialist, who would be consulted to determine auspicious days for various events.The style in which the figures are portrayed is rooted in the traditional Balinese shadow puppet plays (wayang kulit) that render human figures in three-quarter view and animals in profile. The subjects shown in the calendar derive from traditional narratives. The lowest row on the calendar is missing, and may have been damaged and removed.This label is based on the research of Alison Shives, Willamette University Class of 2007.
