I love it! I was looking up Raden Saleh and felt pleasantly surprised. You can really see his progress and I think his landscapes in particular are beautiful. Same with the few naval paintings I've seen thus far.

Usually we don't hear much about Indonesian history, or the Dutch colonial empire for that matter and its impact on Southeast Asia.

Sort:  

Honestly, I've also just admired Raden Saleh, giving me new knowledge that Indonesia has extraordinary artists.

We have made me dive further into the history of my own people, thank you for this community event.

I like these works, especially the things related to planes and perspectives, as well as the colors. This is definitely a great artist; I have already entered him for my "Art and Writing" contest.
