A range of illustrations in this first part of the book, including portraits of many of the artists, helps to make it more visual and vivid.

The second part of the work is a joy for every art lover. Never have so many illustrations of the art of this genre been collected together, and much of this material has not been published before.

A standard work on the subject, it is an invaluable guide for art dealers, auctioneers, curators, art book and print collectors, and a fascinating survey for all those interested in Indonesia.
