Barong between two witches
The image of Rangda left and right and the image of Barong the good in the middle seen at the entrance gate ot the Taman Nusa museum nearby Denpasar.
Barong is a panther-like creature and character in the Balinese mythology. He is the king of spirits, leader of the hosts of good.
Meanwhile, Rangda is the demon queen and mother of all spirit guarders in the mythological traditions of Bali.
Rangda is depicted as a mostly nude old woman, with long and unkempt white or black hair, pendulous breasts, and claws. Her face is traditionally a horrifying fanged and goggle-eyed mask, with a long, protruding tongue.
