(10),415; (6),415; (6),445 pp. Original edition. - Steven Adriaan Buddingh (1811-1869), Minister at Batavia, was charged with the inspection of the Protestant churches and schools in Indonesia in 1851, he spent a total of five years (1852-57) completing the assignment.

The fine coloured plates by Carl Wilhelm Mieling represent a variety of views in the archipelago. 'This is more than a travelogue, containing as it does information on a wide range of subjects skilfully interwoven into the narrative. Of particular importance is the discussion of Hindu-Javanese antiquities and the description of towns and their inhabitants .. The combination of an interesting and informed text with so many coloured plates makes Buddingh's Neêrlands-Oost-Indië one of the handsomest of Dutch nineteenth century travel books, especially those copies which were bound up by the publisher in red cloth, with gilt blocking on the upper cover and spine' (Bastin-Brommer p.37-38). - A fine set.Bastin-Brommer N 575; Landwehr, Col.
