Abstract

This research is to investigate how Prince Diponegoro - one of the National Heroes in the Republic of Indonesia - is presented in visual works either in two or three-dimensional media. Of the various vernacular expressions scattered in many places in Yogyakarta, it can be said that Diponegoro - the eldest son of Sultan Hamengkubuwono III of the Yogyakarta Sultanate - was presented in various expressions, which seemed to be based on arbitrary interpretations and arbitrary conception. . This research was conducted by first observing Diponegoro's drawings from a number of works - paintings, sculptures, and reliefs - then observing again using visual data and historical texts from official sources that can be accessed by the public. Each selected artwork is considered a sign; its signifier is analyzed, interpreted, and assessed to answer research questions. In general, there are many interpretations of Diponegoro, causing many perceptions, about Diponegoro. Based on the findings obtained, it can be said that the representation of Diponegoro in various visual works have developed in such an arbitrage, even from what is symptomatic can be said to have shown the symptoms of anarchism.
