wood, brass, h 15.3cm × l 75.5cm × w 28.8cm More details

The Cora-Cora is a Moluccan prahu. Eyes have been painted on either side of the prow. The cabin is finely decorated with gilded reliefs of birds. The red-white-andblue stripe adorning the front and back of the hull suggests that the vessel may have been used as a state ship by the colonial government in the Dutch East Indies.
