商品簡介
Beautifully illustrated with both color and b&w photographs, this book acts as a chronological overview of the history of the Oceania collection at the Tropenmuseum with a focus on why the collection has become internationally important and who has been involved in acquisition and presentation. Compiled by a recent curator of the Oceania exhibits in the Tropenmuseum, the book focuses on the main pieces in the collection, which is comprised mainly of artifacts from the Netherlands' colonial past in New Guinea, and largely ignores the minor side exhibits.
