83: Hampatong with Dayak figure wearing a Dutch military uniform. Ngaju, Borneo Island, Indonesia. Museum collection. An extremely refined, detailed, and delicately carved figure, leans forward, following the shape of the original tree. A small monkey drinking from a coconut rests on top of the hat. One of my all time favorite central Borneo ironwood sculptures.
