Hardcover. Condición: Very Good. This book covers the work and life of W.O.J. Nieuwenkamp, the first European artist in Bali. It contains images and descriptions of his artworks and the Balinese culture he documented. Wijnand Otto Jan Nieuwenkamp, often referred to as W.O.J.N., was a versatile Dutch artist and explorer who made a name for himself in the early twentieth century primarily through his pioneering work on the island of Bali. As a self-taught artist, he worked in various disciplines, including painting, drawing, sculpture, etching, and lithography. In addition, he was involved in the design of book covers and ex-libris, which underlines his broad interest in graphic art. Nieuwenkamp was known not only for his artistic qualities but also as a writer, architect, ethnologist, and collector of East Asian art, which gave a special cultural context to his oeuvre. His travels to Indonesia, and Bali in particular, were groundbreaking for a European artist at that time. He was one of the first to capture and appreciate the beauty and cultural richness of this island, thus playing an important role in introducing Balinese art and culture to Europe. His work is of great value to collectors interested in the cross-pollination between Western artistic traditions and East Asian sources of inspiration. This makes all editions and documentation around Nieuwenkamp relevant for lovers of cultural history and interwar art. W.O.J. NIEUWENKAMP First European Artist in BALI.…

Soft cover. Condición: Good. 1st Edition. Paperback. In original tan printed wrappers, 96 pp., 4 black and white photographic plates, and very large folding color soil survey map of the Visalia area at rear. The map, based on U. S. Geological Survey topographic coverage, shows cultural details (individual buildings, roads, railroads, etc.) in addition to soil types and distribution within the region, necessary for delineating important and desirable agricultural areas. Descriptions and characteristics of soil classifications shown on the map are provided in the report together with information about principal and lesser crops grown at the time of the survey. An early edition and possibly the first soil survey of the Visalia area. Later soil surveys provide more maps and finer details but lack the visual appeal, simplicity, and historical content of this earlier large color map. *** Condition: Complete as issued.

Hardcover. Condición: New. Estado de la sobrecubierta: New. 163 pp., illustrations, bibliography, index. "Put together over a period of twenty years, the Huntington Miller Collection of Keris and Keris Hilts is a tour de force. The emphasis here is on the sculptural aesthetic and historical importance of this unique art form from throughout Indonesia: Java, Sumatra, Borneo, Bali, Lombok, Sulawesi and beyond. It is story that spans centuries and the rise and fall of countless kingdoms and polities. The hilts range from minimalistic forms to the abstract to opulent royal weapons beautifully crafted to project prestige and wealth. So, too, they carry with them the aura of mystery and magic of the islands of Southeast Asia, which captured the imaginations of foreigners even before the beginning of the Age of Spices, when the perilous journey from Europe to Indonesia took a year to complete. With a terse and informative text written by Indonesian art expert, Bruce W. Carpenter, this is a cultural and artistic voyage that delights the eye and stimulates the mind.".…
