Josephine Linggar is best known for her elegant and enchanting portrayal of young Indonesian maidens set in serene and contemplative poses. Skilful brush play between colour and shadow bring light and life to the facial expressions, drapery and body contours. The painting depicts Javanese Jamu (herbal drink) seller with wooden puppets in the background. The mood is further enhanced when both figures and background are rendered in rich sepia tones.
Since 1994 when she participated in her first group exhibition at the Mahakam Gallery and solo in Geneva, Josephine has participated in more than 50 exhibitions and charity events in Jakarta. She has collaborated with fellow artists and friends to grace the many numerous venues in Jakarta like the Financial Club, Hilton, Grand Hyatt, Marriot, Nikko, Holiday Inn, Intercontinental, and more than 600 pieces of her paintings have been collected by art lovers from within and outside Indonesia.
