Here's another keris. I don't know who the artist is, but the style of the painting looks positively mid-1800s, Pre-Raphaelite.

interesting, while the hunting horn has a cord baldric to carry it, the keris appears to be the first recorded use of velcro :) (i can't see what is holding it to it's human). it may be more apparent if viewing the original ;). where did you see that one?

I was just informed that this is a fragment of the painting by William Holman Hunt - "A converted British Family Sheltering a Christian Priest from the Persecution of the Druids", 1850.
