In REVISUALIZING SLAVERY, historians, heritage specialists, and cultural scientists shed new light on the history of slavery in Asia by centring visual sources specifically, Dutch paintings, watercolours and drawings from the seventeenth through nineteenth centuries. The traditional image of slavery in Asia is shaped and dominated by terms such as ''mild'', ''debt'' and ''household'', but new historical research that utilises the versatility, power of expression, and silences of and within visual sources explicitly points to it as violent and harsh in character -- comparable to the Atlantic history of slavery.
