Balinese Narrative Drawings

Collection of Balinese narrative drawings and gouaches commissioned by Van der Tuuk to illustrate his Old Javanese-Balinese-Dutch dictionary (Kawi-Balineesch-Nederlandsch woordenboek ). The Balinese dictionary was eventually posthumously published in Batavia between 1897 and 1912, without illustrations.
