Batik Nyonyas: Three Generations of Art and Entrepreneurship — Nyonya Oeij Soen King, Nyonya Oeij Kok Sing, Jane Hendromartono


S$41.28
  • Family, art, and entrepreneurship converge in the story of three visionary Peranakan women from Indonesia — Nyonya Oeij Soen King, her daughter-in-law Nyonya Oeij Kok Sing, and her granddaughter Jane Hendromartono. From the 1890s to the 1980s, they produced impressive batiks in the renowned batik centre of Pekalongan on Java’s north coast.

    Their lives and works reveal how each woman became a batik master in her own right, and how they ingeniously responded to the rapid political, cultural, and economic changes of their times to run a business that produced great art.
