Yes,my own soul has been very much distruburbed;and you,o god-how long?Do return,o god,do rescue my soul;save me for the sake of your loving-kindness.For in death there is no mention of you;in of who will luad you?I have grown weary with my sighing;all night long i make my couch swim;with my tears i make my own divan overflow.
Identified! [Charles Tillyer Trego, director of the film "Isles of Paradise", which was shot in Bali, possibly in Washington, D.C., for the premier of the film] (LOC)

It's a little hard to tell at the available resolution, but the figurines appear to be from Hindu mythology, in which various gods have mounts known as vahana, some of them winged, such as eagles, parrots, geese or swans: www.britannica.com/topic/vahana

Fraser Pettigrew : I agree that these look like gods on their vahanas. However, in lots of googling, I haven't found anything in quite this style. BTW, there are much higher-res images at hdl.loc.gov/loc.pnp/hec.36964 assuming you have a TIFF viewer. To me the one on the left looks female with a mount that is a bird. On the right is an aggressive male on a mount with very similar appearance. ja.wikipedia.org/wiki/%E9%B3%B3%E5%87%B0#/media/%E3%83%95... has similar wings. Appears to be from Indonesia.

swanq Yes, I worked out the high-res link eventually! Doh! I'm thinking that the one on the left is probably Vishnu on his vahana Garuda (an eagle). Or at least it's the closest thing to it I've seen. I think also they might be more likely to be Indonesian/Balinese rather than Indian. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Garuda#/media/File:Garuda_Wishnu_Ba...

I absolutely agree that these look Balinese. The 1932/3 date is before the independence of what became Indonesia from the Netherlands (Dutch East Indies). See en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Indonesia#Colonial_era I was wondering if this delivery could be associated with an embassy, but it's not clear what the Dutch would have been doing with Balinese artifacts.
