This small book, edited and written for the most part by Britta Schilling, is the starting point for a description of the emperor’s relationship with colonialism.
Huis Doorn was the place where the emperor lived after he had left Germany.The book focusses on China and Southwest Africa. Most relevant for our purpose, is Annelore de Kruif’s contribution about six lacquer panels, captured during the 1900 Boxer Rebellion.
