The Book of Batik explores the origins of batik, the materials and methods of production, regional traditions and differences, motifs and meanings, modern influences, batik as costume and as an art form. A list of international batik collections, map of Indonesia’s batik-producing centres and an extensive index complete this authoritative yet accessible work.
