This print showcases "The Garuda Bird" by Geriya, I Made, a renowned Balinese artist from the early 20th century. Created in 1928 using wash technique and gold paint on paper, this artwork is currently housed at the Puri Lukisan Museum in Ubud, Bali, Indonesia. "The Garuda Bird" holds immense significance in Hindu mythology as it is considered to be the vahana (vehicle) of Lord Vishnu. This mythical creature takes the form of an eagle with human-like features and symbolizes power, strength, and protection. The artist's skillful use of wash technique and gold paint brings out intricate details that highlight both its divine nature and traditional Indonesian aesthetics. Geriya's painting beautifully captures the essence of Balinese culture while paying homage to ancient myths. The vibrant colors used depict Mount Puri Lukisan as a backdrop for this majestic bird, adding depth to the composition. With its wings spread wide open against a golden sky, "The Garuda Bird" exudes grace and grandeur. This print not only serves as a visual delight but also offers insight into Asian art history and Hindu traditions. It reminds us of the rich cultural heritage present in Bali while showcasing Geriya's talent as one of Indonesia's esteemed artists. Whether you are an art enthusiast or simply intrigued by mythological creatures, this piece will undoubtedly captivate your imagination with its timeless beauty.
