Thank you.
Looking again at the pic, the depicted figure is probably not Bayu indeed since he has an agressive look (teeth & fangs), while Bayu is normally shown with a friendly face (often smiling). It may rather depict Ravana or Ratmaja but as the piece is recent (kreasi baru), we cannot be sure.
