“It has reached the point where, in thirty or so years, those art historians who succeed us, will be able to add to our two paragraphs, only a third entitled `The Disappearance of Cambodian Art under Foreign Influence´” – Greorge Groslier, Ecole des Arts cambodgiens, Musée Albert Sarraut, Direction des Arts cambodgiens (1930)

“a certain degeneration, a beginning of decadence´ in `the motifs of the most recent art´: `the influence of the West, and models of deplorable taste introduced by cinema, illustrated magazines, and trinkets in the market, had made themselves felt amongst artisans used to transmitting from father to son, by tradition, ancestral motifs in which the art of Angkor was reflected´.”- Henri Marchal "Curator of Angkor" / EFEO (1910)

“mixed style of Chinese, Japanese, and of European forms” and `copyists of the European´- Francois Baudoin, The Resident Superior of the Camb. Protectorate, (1920s)

… are the Khmer / Cambodians only `copyists´: `cut & paste only?´
