Reviews

'The book and its companion website will become standard sources for studying European and American practices of visually 'documenting' distant lands, the inescapable entwining of collections and displays with nineteenth-century imperial ambition and its rationalizing hierarchies of race and culture, while also affording opportunities to reassess the collection in ways that transcend the colonial constructs that shaped it.' Journal of the History of Collections
