Footnotes
The Sri Lankan photographs of Lionel Wendt (1900-1944) "are full of love for the traditional cultures and tropical nature of his homeland. Especially, through his male nude photographs, we get a strong impression and see Wendt's unique gaze" (Yasunaga Koichi, introduction to exhibition catalogue, Fukuoka Asian Art Museum, Japan, August 2003).
