About this issue
Edited by Anne Dunlop and Cordelia Warr the issue takes eleven objects in Melbourne collections to examine the concepts of foreignness and the out-of-place in the early modern world. The objects were made over a span of almost four centuries, from the 1400s into the 1700s, and in regions as far apart as England and the Philippines. They include manuscripts and sculptures, textiles, drawings, and prints. Some were made as artworks, while others began as practical objects with a specific use.
