Javaanse Court Officials, c.1820-c.1870. Creator: Unknown
Javaanse Court Officials, c.1820-c.1870. Clothes make the man, so too in Indonesia. These are not actual portraits, but types. In addition to revealing the region these men come from, the meticulously painted clothes and batik motifs also provide information about their rank and status.
These proud, confident figures are unusual: in Western pictures, Indonesians were usually portrayed as hostile, subservient or as unspoilt savages
