Hemd

Een hemd van zwarte katoen. Van voren open, met wit katoen breed omboord en daarop een versiering van rode en zwarte strepen, waardoor op de kraag meanderfiguren. Langs de onderrand een kettinglijn, langs de borstopening M-vormige figuren, op de schouders en op de mouwen krokodilmotieven.<BR> <BR> In het boek van Lynda Angelica Reyes "The textiles of Southern Philippines", blz. 45, over het krokodilmotief: "The crocodile was regarded with awe and even veneration. Its image was deeply impressed on the minds of the people. A particular schema was created in which the most essential aspects of the reptile was discernible. This motif in Bagobo design was found almost in every item carried or worn on the body. It was probable that the motif was considered a charm and for it to be efficacious, it had to be situated closest to the body. Clothing was the closest to human skin, hence, the motif was incorporated in most Bagobo-clothing."<BR>
