Lombok Expedition 1894, Picture Gallery

Lombok, photo and picture gallery
Mayura Park, Cagranegara/Mataram, Lombok 2010
Built and laid out in 1744 by Raja Anak Agung Ngurah, Balinese Raja of
Karangasem (Bali) and Mataram (Lombok). Mataram was his residence. The
open building, pendopo, in the centre of the picture was a court of justice as
well as an official meeting hall. From> Travelbalilombok.wordpress. I lost my
own photos.
Mayura Park, and vicinity, in Cagranegara was the area where the Dutch
colonial army had a rough time in August 1894. The Balinese resistance, with
modern arms, was overwhelming. Later that year the Dutch came back and
their victory was complete: amidst loud applause of the locals, the Lombok the
subSasaks.
This gallery is meant to supplement my article “The Lombok Expedition 1894”.
You are advised to read this article first. Go back to my sub index page “Lombok

Narmada Park is located ten kilometres east from Mayura Park / Pura (Temple) Meru,
right from the main road to Labuhan Lombok. Narmada Park is a sort of water palace,
It used to be a (water) puri (palace) laid out by Anak Agung Gede Ngurah, a Balinese
Raja of Karangasem-Mataram (see picture page 1). The puri was built in 1727. The
name Narmada was chosen because of its Hindu origin and means something like
“unknown water”. Narmada was built for pleasure as well as for worshipping Hindu
Saints, the God Shiva f.e.. Photo Dirk Teeuwen, 2002.

The Battle of Cagranegara, Lombok 1894
The original coloured school plate (a big one), a picture by J. Hoynck van
Papendrecht (1858-1933), is part of the author’s personal collection. However,
is was more practical to adapt a rather vague picture from Wikipedia and to
reset it into black and white, after sharpening.
