EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a Javanese man dressed in exquisite court attire, providing us with a glimpse into the rich cultural heritage of Java. The man is adorned in traditional garments, including a kuluk (cap), batik chelana (pantaloons), dodot (sarong cloth), and sabuk (waistband). His ensemble is completed by the presence of a kris (dagger) and wedung (chopper), symbolizing his status and authority. The image is an adaptation from a painting by William Daniell found in Sir Thomas Raffles' History of Java, dating back to 1824. Handcoloured woodcut artists A. C. and Lisbet have beautifully brought this historical depiction to life, showcasing their talent as engravers. This photograph not only captures the intricate details of the man's attire but also serves as an exploration into Indonesian culture and fashion during the 19th century.
