Description
Ida Bagus Made Poegoeg (Sanur, active 1930s)
Pounding Rice
Executed in, or before April 1937
Wash technique on paper, black ink framing lines
15.5 x 33 cm.
The artist is also known as: Ida Bagus Poegoeg (Pugug), Ida Bagus Pegoeg, and Ida Bagus Poegig. He was a pupil of Ida Bagus Nyoman Geria, who can be acclaimed as the first artist working in a style we now recognise as the style of the Sanur group of painters. He was also influenced by Ida Bagus Nyoman Klingking (better known as Ida Bagus Nyoman Rai) and Ida Nagus Soenia, who was also his spiritual teacher. Like Klingking he is associated with the 'household' of Theo Meier. When he became priest pedanda Gede Simpar of Ketewel, he moved away from Sanur and stopped working as an artist. Bateson and Mead collected sixteen works by the artist. The artist was a member of the Pita Maha artists' association.
Inscribed on the reverse by Bateson: "Neuhaus calls him Ida Bagus Poegig", and in Balinese, possibly by Kaler, with the artist's name and the date of purchase.

Auction result well in line with expectations
In September 2001 Christies in Singapore held the auction PRE-WAR BALINESE MODERNISTS: 1928-1942, which included the work Pounding Rice by Ida Bagus Made Poegoeg. The price achieved of SGD 2,937.50 (€ 1,826.94) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as SGD 2,500.00 – 4,000.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Ida Bagus Made Poegoeg - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Birth Ritual, which sold at auction in September 2001 for SGD 7,637.50 (€ 4,750.04).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Im September 2001 führte Christies in Singapur die Auktion PRE-WAR BALINESE MODERNISTS: 1928-1942 durch, in der auch die Arbeit Pounding Rice von Ida Bagus Made Poegoeg zur Versteigerung kam. Der dabei erzielte Preis von SGD 2.937,50 (€ 1.826,94) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit SGD 2.500,00 – 4.000,00 angegeben worden. Für andere Arbeiten von Ida Bagus Made Poegoeg mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit Birth Ritual beobachtet, die im September 2001 für SGD 7.637,50 (€ 4.750,04) versteigert wurde.
