Sumatra, lac Toba
Cavalier et sa monture, seconde moitié du XXe siècle
En pierre calcaire.
Ces statues étaient généralement sculptés à l'effigie d'un chef. L'étrange animal qui joue le rôle du destrier est un singha, un monstre mi- serpent mi- buffle.
Bon état, quelques manques (oreille droite du Singha manquant, oreille gauche recollée), patine liée aux intempéries
