ABOUT THIS EPISODE
John, Charlie and Zoe, three University of Sheffield students, discuss the history of Dutch colonialism through three chosen artefacts, all visual pieces. The central question is: How can the pictures help us understand the artists, the purpose, and the subjects involved.
- Leon Senf, Ontwerp voor een tegeltableau (1917)
- Dirk Valkenburg, Ritueel van slaafgemaakten op een suikerplantage in Suriname (1707)
- Alexander de Lavaux, Map of Suriname (1737)
