Summary:	Frits Liefkes (1930-2010) lived with Indonesian art. His house in The Hague was full of it. Bought almost entirely at auctions and from art dealers in the Netherlands during a period of four decades, on his death he bequeathed his collection to Rijksmuseum Volkenkunde in Leiden. This book, which accompanies an exhibition, presents some of his most beautiful and interesting objects. Reflecting his special interests, golden jewellery and wonderful textiles are particularly well represented in a collection that portrays the skilled craftsmanship of Indonesian artisans. Exhibition: Rijksmuseum Volkenkunde / National Museum of Ethnology, Leiden, the Netherlands (7.5.-21.7.2013). 0.
