Massive 19th C. Indonesian Dayak Wood Figural Hampatong

Item Details

Description

Southeast Asia, Indonesia, Borneo, Dayak culture, ca. 19th to early 20th century CE. A massive wooden hampatong carving of two ancestral figures, presenting a characteristically stylized form upon an integral pedestal. The taller figure wears a pointed headdress or crown, and the lower figure grasps the waist of the other, like a small child, and the head is unnaturally turned to face forward. Despite the affectionate and intimate placement of the figures, the faces are eerily abstract and menacing; note the sharp teeth of the mother! The dramatic visages were meant to frighten away any evil spirits or living enemies. Flanking the figures’ sides are support beams extending between the elbows and knees that help reinforce the openwork. Hampatongs of this size were placed outside entrances or as markers for fields and graves as protective, guardian spirits. The wood is sundrenched to a white hue with nice signs of age and weathering from standing guard over a village. Size: 12" W x 64.75" H (30.5 cm x 164.5 cm); 65" H (165.1 cm) on included custom stand.
