About this book

Between 1874 and 1903 J. F. Scheltema made Java his home, and this book is his memory of the island's ancient Hindu and Buddhist temples. He says plainly that it offers no measurements, statistics or complete list of monuments, and no practical tourist guide, only walks off the main roads and the setting in which the temples stand.

The Boro Budoor appears as the first plate. Scheltema drew the vignettes of Javanese ornament himself. Macmillan published the book in London in 1912, and it is dedicated to his cousin, the painter August Allebé.
