Signed Expressionist Painting of Balinese Women, "Three Balinese Women"

Three Balinese women, in Bahasa tiga wanita Bali, stand side-by-side in this painting by Purwadi. Says the artist, "These three women are in preparation to go to temple." Each woman wears a traditional kebaya in tones of pink and beige. A kebaya is a form of clothing that women typically wear when they go to a temple. Purwadi paints this scene in a moody, expressionist style.
