An illustration depicting a Dalang (shadow puppet master) performing a traditional Javanese Wayang Kulit show. The puppet master, wearing a traditional Javanese headcloth (blangkon), is expertly manipulating the two leather puppets with rods. The scene is set behind the screen (kelir), illuminated by a single lamp, casting shadows of the puppets onto the cloth.
