Depicted with exaggerated expressions and a humorous thumbs-up gesture, the scene likely references Petruk or Gareng giving enthusiastic instructions to a crew of eager (and perhaps overly agreeable) companions. The characters' expressive faces, hunched stances, and whimsical energy convey both satire and cultural storytelling, rooted in centuries of Javanese performance tradition. Combine it with other Punakawan or wayang-style glass paintings to build a narrative wall. See less
