Jogja?
 

Thanks,

J.

FTFY, Jussi . :p

Solo? (if the pic had color it would be better)

I'm not clued in to specific dance dress styles, Jussi, but what I can see of the keris on the bloke at left looks like Jogja.

Thank you Mr. Maisey :)

J.

The style of batik also looks like Jogja, see the book "Keris Jawa" page 395 for instance. :)

Please upload these pictures to the site . :)

???

I´ve pressed the picture icon and pasted the straight links through it. Is that a wrong way?

Please consult.

Thanks,

J.

Yes Jussi, that would be the wrong way. The correct way is to use "Attach Files" in the "Additional Options" area directly below your posting box and upload the images directly to this site. It is the second option. When you attach your photos via a link as you have done the images are dependent upon that link. If the link is broken or you remove the photos from that server the forum will no longer have them in the archive and any discussion which forms around them will become senseless.

Now done the right way. Enjoy.

You rock Jussi... ;) :)

The fighting scene is a fight between Buta Cakil (the bucktoothed buta or buto from Astina) against Janaka or Arjuna of Pendawa kingdom in a Wayang Wong (Wayang theatre) performance...

In the end of the story, according to one version, Buta Cakil was dead not because of Arjuna's keris, but by his own keris when he threw his keris in the air. He missed to catch it, and stabbed by his own...

But picture one is not of the same origin as pictures two and three .

Also I notice the long nail on figure one; not there on 2&3 ... :confused:

Bali vs Jawa versions ?

from the style of Keris and the Batik i think it's Jogja..

look closely to the warangka of the Kris, it's Ladrang Jogja, isn't it?

Nice pics!

The guy with the long thumbnail is Bhima, thats his weapon, the pancanaka.
