Although the art of the Batak tribes in the mountains of northern Sumatra has been admired by collectors and scholars since the 19th century, only a limited number of pieces have appeared in publications over the years. This illustrated book showcases hundreds of masterpieces of Batak sculpture from the Mandala collection. With texts by the world’s leading Batak expert, Achim Sibeth, and Indonesian art expert, Bruce W. Carpenter, this book is a milestone in the literature on Southeast Asian tribal art.
