In this episode of Many Lenses, with the help of specialist guests, we will discuss three colonial artefacts, their contexts and how they are interconnected. The three artefacts central to this episode are:

  • Painting: 'The arrest of Diponegoro painted by Pieneman' (Rijksmuseum, Amsterdam);
  • The ‘Diaroma of a Du, Dance celebration on the Plantation’ (Rijksmuseum, Amsterdam);
  • Map of Africa from the collection ‘Theatre of the world’ (Afrikamuseum, Brussel)

    • Emma Halliburton, Natalia Rowe, Beth Speakman & Alice Willett
