De Volken der aarde
De Volken der aarde is an 1903 Amsterdam ethnology book by Johannes François Snelleman, published by Scheltema & Holkema, cataloguing the peoples of the world for a Dutch readership. Its pictures are plain studio-style photographic portraits of individuals against neutral backgrounds, with frontal poses and little staging, giving designers straightforward records of dress, body adornment and hairstyle.
