520 $a"This book critically examines Dutch colonial culture in the Netherlands Indies trough the prism of landscape art. Susie Protschky contends that visual representations of nature and landscape were core elements of how Europeans understood the tropics, justified their territorial claims in the region, and understood their place both in imperial Europe and in colonized Asia during the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. Her book thus makes a significant contribution to studies of empire, art and environment, as well as to histories of Indonesia and Europe"--P. [4] of cover.
520 8 $aSummary: This publication critically examines Dutch colonial culture in the Netherlands Indies trough the prism of landscape art. Susie Protschky contends that visual representations of nature and landscape were core elements of how Europeans understood the tropics, justified their territorial claims in the region, and understood their place both in imperial Europe and in colonized Asia during the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. The author reveals how images of the tropics visually articulated colonial attempts to legitmize and historicize claims to Dutch territorial sovereignty in the Indies. This book thus makes a significant contribution to studies of empire, art and environment, as well as to histories of Indonesia and Europe.
