Description

The Banks Collection: An Episode in 18th-Century Anglo-Swedish Relations by Stig Ryden. Produced by The Ethnographical Museum of Sweden, Stockholm (Statens Etnografiska Museum) Monograph Series, Publication No. 8. The Swedish Ethnographical Museum in Stockholm is sometimes referred to - not altogether inaccurately - as 'the packing-case museum'. Its collections have never been exhibited in their entirety. This booklet covers the museum's collection of Sir Joseph Banks 'objects' collected and captured during is exploration of New Zealand and the South Pacific. With over 30 pages of black and white plates and a fold out map at the rear of the book. Light general wear but overall a tidy copy.
