Description

HENK NGANTUNG
(Indonesia, 1921-1991)


Landscape with figures and cows

Oil on canvas: 27 x 45,5 cm

Signed “Henk Ngantung” on the lower right corner.

Provenance: the collection of a Dutch noblewoman lived in Indonesia, acquired before 1975.

Henk Ngantung was born in 1921 as Hendrik Hermanus Joel Ngantung.
Self-taught as a painter, between 1960 and 1964 he was asked by President Sukarno to be the vice-governor of Jakarta, becoming governor the next year. After stepping down in this role, he retreated into a life of seclusion, continuing to paint through illness. Just before his death, he was honoured with his first solo exhibition, organised by the famous Indonesian collector, Ciputra.
