Pucung punishes the monkey

I Lutung Maling Ketimun (Der Gurke klauende Affe)

ca. 1935 | Helene Potjewijd

Boiling with rage, Pucung catches the monkey who dared to enter his property. He carries the animal out of the garden towards a meadow and the border of the forest. The animals of the forest inquisitively watch as Pucung punishes the monkey, his hands tied together behind his back, with a long branch.
