Isidore Kinsbergen, a Dutch photographer known for his work documenting Indonesian architecture, captured this bas-relief at Candi Panataran in 1867. The photograph depicts a detailed carving of the east side of the pendopo, a traditional Javanese pavilion. The relief showcases figures of Bubaksha and Gagang Aking, likely Javanese deities or historical figures, surrounded by intricate floral motifs and other figures, offering a glimpse into the rich artistic traditions of ancient Java. The photograph provides valuable documentation of the cultural significance and architectural beauty of Candi Panataran, a renowned Hindu temple complex in East Java.
