Different Ways to Catch a Fish
Wash technique and watercolour on paper, pencil framing lines, framed and glazed.

Hidden in this at the upper right scene is an episode of the Amad story. The hero Amad is shown flying up, carrying an arrow, bow, and a sack. It refers to how he tricked two genies or jin, into giving him their magical tools: an arrow that always returns to its bow, a coat with the power of flight, and a sack which always contains one's favourite food. Only one genie is shown cursing Amad, who flies up (for the Amad story see also lot 28). Inscribed on the reverse: 'Vischvangst Batoean', and with other annotations. The artist was a member of the Pita Maha artists' association, and is also known as Ida Bagus Semawa.
