Ida Bagus Made Poegoeg (Sanur, active 1930s)
Farmers and Buffaloes
Wash technique and watercolour on paper (manufacturer's mark: 'ABC'), pencil and black ink framing lines, framed and glazed.
50 x 64.5 cm.
The artist is also known as: Ida Bagus Poegoeg (Pugug), Ida Bagus Pegoeg and Ida Bagus Poegig. He was a pupil of Ida Bagus Nyoman Geria, who can be acclaimed as the first artist working in a style we now recognise as the style of the Sanur group of painters. He was also influenced by Ida Bagus Nyoman Klingking (better known as Ida Bagus Nyoman Rai) and Ida Bagus Soenia, who was also his spiritual leader. Like Klingking, he is associated with the 'household' of Theo Meier. When he became priest pedanda Gede Simpar of Ketewel, he moved away from Sanur and stopped working as an artist. Bateson & Mead collected sixteen works by the artist. The artist was a member of the Pita Maha artists' association.
To be illustrated in a forthcoming book by Dr. A. Vickers: Balinese Paintings; Mementoes, Diversions, Masterworks (1928-1942), (Pepin Press).
