ABSTRACT

The Gunung Kawi Bebitra and the Dalem Tampuagan Temple sites in Bali are known to have a number of reliefs, some of which can be linked to the tantri story. Although both depict the same story, they both have differences in the depiction and selection of the story scenes depicted. It is certainly interesting to study how the artists at the Gunung Kawi Bebitre Site (GKB) and Pura Dalem Tampuagan (PDT) express their inspiration in describing story scenes that refer to the same script. This paper will discuss what aspects make the difference in the depiction of the reliefs at the two sites. This research is qualitative, collecting data by direct observation of the location, then processing into data by conducting a description of the findings followed by analysis. The analysis carried out concerns the iconographic aspects of the reliefs related to the iconographic value, and the value of art, concerning the elements of style whose cultivation determines the beauty and the bad of reliefs as an expression of the encouragement of beauty in humans. The results of the comparison of relief art with sad alga analysis show that the PDT relief panels are more beautiful than GWK. This is because PDT artists have better skills than GWB artists. Of course, this is understandable because GKB artists are artists in the hermitage, far from the center of power, while PDT artists are royal artists whose artistic quality can be relied on.
